    Did Specialty ETFs Provide a Cushion From the Fall? [view article]
    Most all professional are looking for a way to beat the market without suffering too much volatility. For most risk adverse clients holding bonds reduces beta and returns. For the more aggressive investors who does not mind a higher beta and just want to gain a significant edge on the market are looking for the ETF that will out perform the "market". For an example, isn't the RSP a slightly better core holding than the SPY?

    One idea for a negatively correlated ETF is one composed of companies that are in the "deep value" category. It would lag the market and in a market turn should out perform significantly.

    What are your thoughts?     Reply

    26 Dividend Paying ETFs By Yield [view article]
    The ETFs are market weighted or fundamental weighted. The average yield of the stocks comprising it is meaningless in the context of the ETF itself. Reply

    The Top Dividend Paying ETFs and Stocks [view article]
    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.

    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

    PowerShares Adopts Monthly Dividends for High Yield ETF (PEY) [view article]
    Thanks for highlighting these; I was familiar with DividendTree and some other companies with similar instruments, but these are new to me. I've done some research and analysis on some like-minded high yield ETFs, including international real estate investment trusts which also have high yield payouts. For more like these, please visit my site and leave comments. Thanks, Dan
