Our read on DIV
CMost big dividend funds chase payout growth. DIV goes the other way: a roughly 50-stock U.S. portfolio built on a SuperDividend index with a low-volatility filter, and it cuts a check every month.
The fund seeks to track the price and yield performance of the Indxx SuperDividend® U.S. Low Volatility Index before fees and expenses.
Why people hold it
- The mandate is specific, not vague income marketing: track the Indxx SuperDividend U.S. Low Volatility Index, so the dividend screen runs through a volatility filter.
- Pays monthly rather than quarterly, which lines up with how bills actually arrive.
- About 50 holdings, all U.S. listed. Small enough that you can read the whole basket instead of trusting a 400-name sleeve.
- Live since 2013, so it carries a decade-plus of real results across multiple rate regimes, not a backtest.
Worth knowing
- At 0.45% a year it costs more than the typical dividend-screen fund, and many times what index staples like SCHD (0.06%) and VIG (0.04%) charge.
- Low volatility is a selection screen, not a shield. This is an equity fund and it moves with the stock market.
- Against the broader dividend-screen field it sits in the lower half, where cheaper, broader rivals do the core income job for less.
