Portfolio Review: 3 Stocks And 3 ETFs I'm Buying To Boost My Passive Income

Given heightened economic uncertainty, I am leaning more defensive and sticking with my dividend growth investing strategy, emphasizing diversification and income stability. The frozen housing market, soft labor conditions, and stagnating consumer spending signal potential economic weakness, despite optimism in select sectors like tech. My ETF portfolio review shows shifting leadership, with midstream energy outperforming previously, but preferreds and tech-focused ETFs now leading as trends evolve.

Dividend Growth Is My Antidote To Uncertainty

In an uncertain market, I stick to five core investing principles: stay the course, specialize, diversify, trust proven experts, and keep some cash. Dividend growth investing (DGI) remains my strategy, with a focus on reliable cash flow compounding and growing dividends to eventually replace labor income. I diversify beyond my real estate core by blending passive DGI ETFs and selecting active ETFs with proven outperformance.

TBG: A High-Conviction Dividend ETF Finding Its Footing

TBG is an actively managed ETF comprised of 30-40 U.S. companies selected for their dividend sustainability and ability to grow distributions over a 5-7 year market cycle. The fund's 0.59% expense ratio negatively impacts distributions, but its 2.40% trailing dividend yield is likely understated. This article explains why I expect it to gradually increase to the 3.50-3.60% range. TBG has solid quality and dividend growth features, though negative historical earnings growth rates have led to a high 66% payout ratio, 8% more than the four-year average.

TBG: Potent Dividend Strategy, Yet Liquidity And Returns Weigh On The Rating

TBG Dividend Focus ETF has a potent strategy, as it has beaten a few peers since its inception, though it has lagged the market. The Fund has a value tilt and excellent quality, but low-fee passively managed SCHD looks stronger, with higher weighted average ROA and dividend growth rates.

TBG: Dividend Strategy Mindful Of FCF, Mostly Delivers, Worth Shortlisting

TBG has an active strategy with a focus on dividend growth stocks with resilient balance sheets and robust FCF. The results it has delivered since inception in 2023 are impressive beyond doubt, as it has beaten a few heavyweight dividend growth ETFs easily. Its financials-heavy portfolio of 35 companies has impressive quality and value exposures. However, its growth characteristics, namely the 3-year FCF CAGR, look too weak to me.
