| 27 Crypto Insiders Break Their Silence |
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are a great way to diversify at less cost.
They’re even better if they pay out dividends.
Look at the Vanguard Real Estate ETF (VNQ), for example.
With an expense ratio of 0.13%, a yield of 3.74%, and 160 holdings, including a great deal of real estate investment trusts (REITs), VNQ is a safe, long-term real estate opportunity.
Making it even more attractive is the recovery in commercial real estate. According to analysts at Deloitte, the CRE market is showing signs of recovery in 2025, with some predicting a generational opportunity, as noted in Deloitte’s 2025 Commercial Real Estate Outlook.
ProShares S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats ETF
One of the best ways to generate reliable income is by investing in dividend aristocrats because they’re among the most reliable dividend payers.
Not only have these stocks paid out dividends for more than 25 years, they’re also some of the most reliable companies on the planet even in the worst of times. And while you could always buy a basket of aristocrats, you can instead pick up the NOBL ETF, which holds 66 of them and yields 2.46%. Its expense ratio is 0.35%.
Making it even more attractive, it’s been trending higher (with the exception of the 2020 drop along with a massive market pullback) since 2013.
Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF
There’s also the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF (SCHD).
With an expense ratio of 0.06%, the ETF tracks the total return of the Dow Jones U.S. Dividend index. It also yields 3.58%, and has holdings in Amgen, AbbVie, Home Depot, Cisco Systems, Broadcom, Chevron, UPS, and Coca-Cola to name just a few.
The ETF includes a total of 103 dividend stocks. So, by buying into the ETF, you’re diversified with a great deal of dividend stocks.
