FT Vest Technology Dividend Target Income ETF

TDVI

Market cap $260M

The Income Quintet - BDCs, Midstream Energy, REITs, Preferred Stocks, and Covered Call ETFs - offers a balanced approach to maximizing yield and income safety. I prioritize quality over raw yield, focusing on internally managed BDCs, disciplined midstream operators, select REITs, and actively managed preferred ETFs for sustainable income. BDCs with internal management, like MAIN, command significant NAV premiums, reflecting superior alignment and lower capital costs compared to externally managed peers.

TDVI stands out by selecting tech dividend payers and writing index calls, creating a mismatch that targets an 8% yield before fees. The ETF maintains about 86% upside participation, sacrificing some rally potential for steady income. Compared to peers, TDVI offers a lower yield but a more balanced overwrite, achieving better participation in tech sector upswings.
