    for Frank Li, Dividend stocks are a great way to make a
    living especially for those of us who are retired. I have been
    investing in dividend stocks for 52 years and have no regrets.
    I retired at 44 (23 years ago) and make a 6 figure income, which
    is really what you want and need when you retire.     Reply

    When Flying to Quality, Be "In the Bank" [view article]
    I have a checking account in Citibank. It is a money market account.

    I also moved my 401K to a fixed income fund that has an NAV of 1 (this is also a money market account).

    In the case of a major financial meltdown, are these accounts safe? I just want to preserve my capital.

    Hi everybody:

    Thanks for the suggestions. I will look at some of ratios to add to the article. Also, for individual stocks, dividend growth rate is quite important in evaluating a stock's long-term performance in terms of dividend payout. However, due to limited resources, I am not sure if I can find all the information I need or not, but I will try. Actually, the initial purpose of the article was to compare the performance of dividend paying ETFs and see how much they are different from each other.

    Frank Emery: Yes, companies in the financial, utility and real estate sectors usually pay higher dividends. I will take a look at international dividend ETFs later.

    Frank Li: The ER column has the expense ratio of each ETF.

    bigjohn_hk: The main reason I am considering replacing Powershares ETFs with Vanguard ETFs is cost. Vanguard ETFs have much lower ER then Powershares ETFs and with a higher yield as well.

    Could you tell me, pls, why you are dissatisfied with PowerShares and are replacing them with Vanguard. I also own the same Powershare Divd. ETFs. Thanks Reply

    3 reasons to question the assumption here that high dividend yielding stocks or ETFs must be good:

    1. As Joe comments above, there's no discussion of dividend coverage.

    2. The theoretical case for dividends is weak. See Why Dividend Paying Stocks Are a Mistake.

    3. There's no discussion of the expense ratios of the ETFs -- even though the expenses are deducted from the dividends, and therefore lead to higher risk or lower growth for a given level of dividends.     Reply

    Some thinking needs to be done about the nature of the companies and the type of diversification that you want. For instance, utilities, banks or financial companies, conglomerates, industrials, energy, etc. What about U.S. companies versus international companies? Reply

    Couple of ratios that may add value is
    a) payout ratio: how much earning is being paid out as dividend. Some of the companies have payout ratio of >100%, which is unsustainable.
    b) dividend growth rate. I am more interested in consistent dividend versus, for instance, dividend that goes up or down based on commodity prices     Reply

    EXCELLENT ARTICLE. TWO SUGGESTIONS:
    1) SHOW RATIO OF DIVIDENDS TO EEP OR FFO
    2) WHAT ABOUT PREFFEREDS? OPP,SD     Reply
