TDV vs. TDIV: Talking Tech Dividends With ETFs
Many investors don't readily think of dividends and tech together, but there's more than meets the eye with this union.
Talk to enough experienced dividend investors and chances are they'll rattle off sectors like consumer staples, healthcare and utilities as some of their favorite payout destinations. Odds are equally good that they won't mention technology.
That's understandable, because the 12-month distribution rate on the largest exchange traded fund (ETF) tracking the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100 Index is a piddly 0.48%Obviously nothing to write home about, but that data point obfuscates tech's status as a rising payout growth spot. In fact, in dollar terms, Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) are two of the biggest dividend payers in the S 500.
