The first half of 2026 was a good one for dividend ETFs.
The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF delivered an impressive 10% return, but the WisdomTree U.S. Total Dividend ETF , which could be used as a proxy for the entire dividend stock universe, beat it by nearly one percentage point.
The Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEMKT: SCHD) and the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF did even better, returning 17.5% and 11.4%, respectively.
