Stan Wong iShares High Dividend Equity HDV-N COMMENT Jun 25, 2015

US dividend ETF? The go to high dividend name that he likes would be this. It holds names like AT&T which pays a pretty high dividend plus others. The fund has done well, and is up about 15% per year over the last 3 years. The yield is about 3.5%.

A dividend paying ETF that he can hold for the next few months without worrying? His preference is to overweight US equities and he likes this one. This will hold names such as AT&T, Verizon, J&J, Procter & Gamble, Wells Fargo, etc, a broad base of different sectors. Pays a pretty decent dividend of probably 3%-4%.

[US Income] This is not going to be a great growth area. High Growth should go into a TFSA, so this one goes into a registered account.

A US high dividend ETF. It is available as XHD-T in Canada as a hedged wrapper. It looks for companies with an economic moat. It is a good product, the dividend is good and the performance has been okay. The question is the currency exposure. It may help you or hurt you. XHD-T will insulate you from movements in the currency.

This is the one that comes to mind. 3.75% yield. XOM, ABBV, VZ, JNJ, CVX. There's a similar one in Canada that's hedged, MER will be higher.

There are about half a dozen similar ETFs you could look at from Vanguard, iShares and SPDR.

Great product with high dividend - so don't expect much capital appreciation. 

Higher-dividend names, but not necessarily dividend-appreciation names. An ETF like this might actually have more leverage in the falling interest-rate environment that we're in now.

Solid ETF dividend strategy with US names.
