DIVB: Steady Amid Macro Volatility, Reiterate Buy, 2.8% Yield

I maintain a buy rating on iShares Core Dividend ETF due to its attractive valuation, strong dividend growth, and substantial increase in assets under management. DIVB's portfolio is heavily weighted towards large-cap value stocks, with significant exposure to Information Technology and Financials, offering a lower-beta, income-focused investment. The ETF's PEG ratio has improved, with a P/E of 14.8x and long-term EPS growth rate of 8.7%, making it reasonably valued.

DIVB: Efficient U.S. Large Cap Value Dividend And Buyback Exposure

Index fund investors face lower yields in the S&P 500, with the 2025 implied dividend yield at 1.3%, down from over 1.5% last year. The iShares Core Dividend ETF offers a compelling alternative with a 2.56% yield, low fees, and a bullish technical trend. DIVB's portfolio focuses on large-cap value stocks, excluding growth stocks, and has a low 14.6x price-to-earnings ratio, enhancing its attractiveness.

DIVB: A Dual Focus On Dividends And Buybacks

Focus on dividend-paying stocks in a volatile market. iShares Core Dividend ETF focuses on U.S. companies with steady income stream and stock buybacks. The DIVB ETF's top holdings in the Tech sector, diversified across sectors, outperform peers like Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF.

DIVB: Strong Holding Diversity With A Focus On Tech

iShares Core Dividend ETF provides majority tech exposure while maintaining a high dividend growth and consistent returns. DIVB's strategy focuses on holding mostly US-based companies that return capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. DIVB's low starting yield of 2.8% is offset by high dividend growth, making it ideal for long-term investors looking to compound income.

Buyback Bonanza: The Top 7 ETFs to Profit From Corporate Cash Splurges

80% of S&P 500 companies are entering pre-earnings buyback blackouts, according to Bloomberg. Analysts anticipate a potential rebound post-blackout.

DIVB: A Well-Diversified, Low-Cost Total Shareholder Yield ETF Worth Watching

DIVB is a well-diversified total shareholder yield ETF with a low 0.05% expense ratio. A strategy change in December 2022 boosted its dividend yield to approximately 3%. While DIVB's actual dividend growth prospects aren't as strong as they look on paper, they're still solid. Among large-cap value ETFs, it ranks above average on dividend yield, growth, and consistency. However, a weak dividend safety and low 2.07% estimated earnings growth rates are key weaknesses. DIVB's low P/E compensates investors, but it's not built for bull markets or high-interest-rate environments.
