VYM: Consistent Dividend ETF, But This 3-ETF Portfolio Looks Better The Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF remains a 'hold' due to its consistent but average performance and moderate yield relative to peers. VYM's sector and company diversification are strong, but equal-weighting FDVV, DGRO, and SCHD deliver superior returns and higher dividend growth. VYM's 2.42% yield and long dividend growth streak appeal to conservative investors, yet its 10-year total return lags these key competitors by 32-55%.
