  • The Top Dividend Paying ETFs and Stocks  [View article]
    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.
