Any investors in the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEMKT: SCHD) who were able to ride out the rough years from 2023 to 2025 are finally being rewarded.
This ETF has grown to become the second largest dividend exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the world with assets of more than $85 billion. It got to that point on the heels of eight consecutive years of performing in the top one-third of Morningstar 's Large Value category. It even managed to keep pace with the S&P 500 , a rarity for dividend ETFs in a tech-driven market.
Over the past few years, however, it all fell apart.
