This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.

The Vanguard International High Dividend Yield ETF (VYMI-N) is highly recommended for investors seeking high monthly dividends and capital appreciation, especially within RRSPs. It offers exposure to a diverse range of international companies known for their robust dividend payouts, such as Novartis, HSBC, Nestle, Shell, and BHP, with a yield ranging from 4% to 5%. This ETF stands out for its ability to provide income through a broad basket of international firms, which tend to exhibit stronger balance sheets and disciplined capital allocation. With the historic valuation discount of international markets relative to the US, there is potential for these markets to perform well as the US dollar's dominance wanes. Additionally, this ETF has outperformed the S&P 500 since late 2024, making it an appealing option for diversifying investments beyond North America.

BUY
ETF recommendation? Looking for high monthly dividend, capital appreciation, in an RRSP, but already heavily invested in banks.

Gives you international companies with high dividends. Names like NVS, HSBC, Nestle, SHEL, BHP. Yield is ~4-5%. International companies will always pay a bit more of a dividend, as they trade at a bit of a discount to NA companies. 

TOP PICK

A theme right now is to diversify beyond NA borders. This ETF provides income from a broad-based basket of international, high-dividend names. These types of companies tend to have stronger balance sheets and more disciplined capital allocation.

Historic valuation discount of those markets relative to the US, but now those markets are starting to perform well as the USD becomes less dominant. Getting a lift from currencies as well.

Market leadership is expanding beyond the US mega-caps. So allocations to other areas such as international and EMs is becoming more important. Against the S&P 500, this ETF has actually outperformed it since late 2024. Yield is 3.8%.
