T - Is VOO A Good Buy For Dividend Portfolios? Yes When Bought At These Lower Prices
- VOO's dramatic surge in share price hides the fact that it has produced robustly growing income for investors who bought throughout most of the past 20 years.
- VOO yields less than dedicated dividend ETFs, but its payout ratio is far better and its composite higher earnings growth balance is protective against companies' current high debt levels.
- Rates have not yet risen but they will. Income-focused investors may be underestimating the havoc that inflation and higher rates can wreak on slow growing dividend stocks.
- VOO is a better investment for the long term, but only if bought at a price that makes sense. Using the S&P 500's P/E and yield history we provide guidance to safer entry points.
