History of strong performance and dividend income growth
Dividend Growth ETFs, as represented by WisdomTree U.S. Quality Dividend Growth Fund (DGRW), have historically provided strong returns, with an annualized 10-year return of over 13% as of 7/31/2024¹. Over the past 3, 5, and 10 years, DGRW has delivered average annual returns of 11.3%, 14.3%, and 13.1%, respectively. Hypothetically, if you invested $10,000 in DGRW ten years ago, your investment would have grown to approximately $34,000, and your annual dividend income would have grown to over $430 as of 7/31/2024. That is about 7% annual income growth which can help keep ahead of inflation.
Dividends: Defend against downturns?
During market downturns over the past decade, Dividend Growth ETFs declined 6% less compared to the broader market. This is partly explained by the quality of companies capable of paying and growing dividends over time. These ETFs typically include well-established companies with strong balance sheets, consistent earnings growth, and a solid history of increasing dividends. This combination of growth and risk management makes them a strong choice for long-term investors
Here are 3 reasons investors should want Dividend Growth ETFs in their portfolios:
Income: Dividend Growth ETFs typically provide a reliable stream of income, often outpacing inflation, which is essential for long-term financial stability.
Resilience: Dividend-paying companies tend to be more resilient during economic downturns, offering portfolio protection when the market is volatile.
Invest in Quality: DGRW includes companies with a history of increasing dividends, indicating strong financial health and commitment to returning value to shareholders.
