QDF: High-Quality, Moderate Approach To Dividends
QDF offers a unique blend of quality and dividend focus, with heavy tech exposure driving recent outperformance versus peers but lagging the broader market. The fund's attractive valuation, high profitability, and strong stock selection position it as a balanced option for growth and income amid upcoming rate cuts. QDF's dividend yield is higher than the broad market but lower than most dividend ETF peers, making it less ideal for pure income seekers.

QDF: Solid Quality Dividend ETF But Still Vulnerable In Drawdowns
QDF uses a proprietary screening process to select high-quality dividend paying stocks that, as a whole, match a specific set of portfolio constraints. I estimate its dividend yield at 1.95%. Compared to similar dividend-themed ETFs like DGRW, VIG, DGRO, and CGDV, QDF's sector diversification is poor, and nearly 30% of the portfolio is allocated to tech stocks. However, the benefit is a fund that ranks well on quality, growth, and value. Even with the high tech sector exposure, QDF trades at an attractive 18.39x forward earnings.
