VYMI Vs. SCHY: Which Fund Gives The Best International Dividend Exposure?
Vanguard International High Dividend Yield ETF offers broad diversification and higher total return potential by targeting high-yielding international stocks, but is heavily weighted in financials. Schwab International Dividend Equity ETF prioritizes consistent, growing dividends with strict selection criteria, resulting in lower volatility and defensive performance, but higher concentration risk at the top. SCHY's dividend growth rate will likely outpace VYMI, making it attractive for yield-on-cost-focused investors, though its total returns lag in bull markets.

Never Bet Against America? I'm Considering It With This International ETF
The U.S. remains the dominant global economic power, but ongoing trade tensions may threaten its long-term leadership. I continue to invest in American businesses, but believe diversifying internationally is prudent for long-term wealth building. Uncertainty from U.S. trade policies could prompt other nations to unify and reduce reliance on America, shifting global dynamics.

VYMI: Relatively Attractive Valuation Comes With Risks
US markets like the S&P 500 are at historically elevated valuation; it's time to search for international companies trading at reasonable multiples. VYMI offers international diversification and a high dividend yield but is heavily weighted toward cyclical sectors, especially financials. While VYMI's valuation appears reasonable, its dividend is vulnerable in downturns and sector concentration increases risk.

3 Great International Dividend ETFs
Medalist funds that invest overseas. Financial advisor A points out that foreign stocks look historically cheap compared to their US peers. Forgoing them for US stocks would be passing on a rare buy-low opportunity. Financial advisor B claims that foreign stocks face hurdles that US firms do not. Poor returns over the past 15 years should be ample evidence that investing overseas is leaving money on the table. So, who's right? It's hard to say, and the debate over foreign stocks' future is more nuanced than our fictitious advisors let on. But for investors who find today's valuations more compelling than yesterday's returns, international dividend ETFs may be worth a look.
