This diversified dividend portfolio targets a 4.67% weighted average yield and 7.14% three-year dividend growth CAGR, balancing income and growth. Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF forms the portfolio's core, complemented by high-yield funds (Cohen & Steers Quality Income Realty Fund, Blackstone Secured Lending Fund) and select equities with strong dividend growth or high payout potential. Stock selection is guided by The Allocation Compass' proprietary Risk-Reward Rating System, emphasizing risk-adjusted returns and sustainable dividend profiles.

Three international dividend ETFs quietly cleared a bar that most U.S. investors assumed only domestic funds could reach, outpacing the S&P 500 while handing investors a yield greater than SCHD.
