Two Alternatives For A Potential $5000 Monthly Income
Traditionally, a large portion of equity returns has come from two factors - reinvested dividends and compounding. We present two income-focused approaches: a fund-based portfolio for hands-off investors and a stock-plus-ETF portfolio for active investors. Both strategies target a 6% income yield, capital preservation, and inflation-beating growth, but differ in maintenance ask and risk profiles.

7 Upcoming Dividend Increases
I focus on companies with consistent dividend growth, strong financial health, and the ability to outperform benchmarks like SCHD. This week's highlighted companies show an average dividend increase of 7.6% and a median streak of 16 years, signaling reliability. Despite some strong historical returns, none of this week's companies meet my strict criteria for new portfolio additions at this time.

How Does SCHD Fare Vs. The SPY And Other Yield Plays?
SCHD has large net overweights to the Energy (especially upstream O&G), Industrials and Consumer Staples sectors vs the S&P500. SCHD's industrials overweight may not be favorable given contracting US Manufacturing PMI data. I don't like how SCHD has zero exposure to some of the SPY's Top 10 Magnificent 7 stocks I am bullish on; NVIDIA, Microsoft and Amazon.

2 High-Yielding ETFs That Can Generate Dividend Income for Your Portfolio for Decades
Investing in dividend stocks is a great way to generate a steady stream of recurring income for your portfolio. But ideally, you don't invest in just one or two dividend stocks, because then you run the risk of a dividend cut or suspension suddenly affecting the income that you've been relying on.

Retirement Yield Trap Or Treasure? 1 Stock To Sell, 1 To Buy
Retirement income investing and high-yields are not mutually exclusive. In fact, I could see a case for building a prudent portfolio that consists of 7%+ yielding securities. Yet, there is a merit of including lower yielding securities as well.
