Our read on STXD
CA young Strive index fund that fishes a 1,000-stock US universe for companies with consistently rising dividends, keeps roughly 220 of them, and pays quarterly. At 0.35% a year, it asks more than the category's cheapest.
The Fund seeks to track the total return of an index of U.S.-listed equities with consistently growing dividends, before fees and expenses.
Why people hold it
- Growth of the payout, not the size of it: the mandate targets US-listed companies with consistently growing dividends, so a rising-dividend record drives the screen rather than the fattest headline yield.
- Rules-based and roomy: roughly 220 US stocks tracked against the Bloomberg US 1000 Dividend Growth Index, with cash paid out quarterly.
- The 0.35% annual fee is mid-pack for a dividend screen, not boutique-premium pricing.
Worth knowing
- Thinly traded and small in assets, so spreads can be less friendly than in the household-name dividend ETFs.
- Fee math is the hurdle: VIG (0.04%), SCHD (0.06%) and DGRO (0.08%) run a fraction of 0.35% while chasing overlapping dividend-growth ground.
- Launched in 2022, so the track record is short, and our review places it in the lower part of a crowded dividend-screen field.
