Our read on CGDV
AA stock picker's dividend fund at near-index pricing: 0.33% a year, roughly 60 names, and a mandate for above-average yield plus growth. Live since 2022 and already grown into a multi-billion-dollar fund.
The fund seeks income above the average yield of U.S. stocks while also offering capital-growth potential.
Why people hold it
- Costs 0.33% a year while the typical fund in its active dividend peer group charges around 0.55%. Active stock picking, index-fund pricing.
- Dual mandate: income above the average yield of U.S. stocks plus capital-growth potential. Not a pure yield chase.capitalgroup.com
- Tens of billions in assets and heavy daily trading make it one of the easier funds in its peer group to get in and out of at a fair spread.
- Delivers its stated mandate with unusual consistency for an active fund, placing it among the strongest implementations in its dividend-income peer group.
Worth knowing
- About 60 holdings. That concentration means individual company stumbles land harder than in a fund holding hundreds of names.
- Active and benchmark-agnostic: results track the managers' calls, not an index, so it can drift well away from the broad market in either direction.
- Pays quarterly, not monthly. Worth knowing if you're building an income schedule.
