UMI: Decent Performance, But Low Oil Prices Could Be An Issue Going Forward

UMI is an actively managed ETF focused on high current income from midstream energy companies, but its yield (3.95%) lags peers and fixed income options. Despite its income focus, UMI has delivered strong total returns, outperforming the S&P 500 and most midstream peers over the past three years. The fund's relatively high expense ratio and concentrated portfolio explain its lower yield, despite holdings in high-yielding midstream firms.

Despite a higher expense ratio of 0.85%, UMI's 3-year dividend growth rate of 31.86% and solid performance make it a compelling choice for dividend growth investors.
