WTV: An Accidental Dividend Growth ETF

Austin Rogers Investing Group Follow Summary WisdomTree US Value Fund (WTV) is a 5-star ETF focusing on shareholder yield, blending quality, momentum, and value factors. WTV offers a 2.16% SEC yield and a 6.5% shareholder yield, with double-digit long-term dividend growth and a robust dividend growth profile. The ETF's methodology screens for high-quality, high-momentum, high-shareholder-yield stocks, resulting in a diversified portfolio with sector and stock concentration advantages. I rate WTV a 'buy' due to its strong fundamentals and momentum, but would consider it a 'strong buy' in the high-$90s. Looking for a helping hand in the market?
