 ETFs What's up money geeks? Mr. V here. Welcome to another video guys. So in today's video We're gonna be talking about my top five Vanguard dividend paying ETFs. So in the past we've done videos on my top five dividend paying stocks under $5 you can check that here Again, we did another one top five dividend paying stocks under $10 and when they hook that one here And we did another one top five dividend paying stocks under $20 and again when they hook it up here. So today we're looking at ETFs So if you're new to these ETFs simply stands for exchange traded funds until you're probably asking yourself like what's the difference between ETFs and stocks like I mean What is the difference? So let's just kind of break it down real quick ETFs is like a collection of security so a collection of stocks that have been handpicked by Maybe hedge fund or somebody and package them so that you don't have to go through the process of doing all the work of Picking individual stocks and doing that research. So they've actually picked them up and package them so that you can just buy And again, some of the ETFs are package based on sector based on Market cap or whatever say have like large carbs and medium-sized cap or smaller caps And so those different packages you can pick which one works better for you So pretty much that's it. But the one thing that ETFs also does is that it helps you diversify your portfolio So you can pick an ETF that covers different sectors of the market so that one sector For instance oil and gas is going down. Let's say technology is going up. See your portfolio is somehow balanced But there is a catch ETFs do have what we call experience ratio. So the people that actually handpicked those different Securities or stocks and put them together and package them for you. They get a fee So they get a small fee just to help manage and pick those stocks So which for most people that fee is what pain because they don't have to go through the headache of picking individual stocks So that is just a kind of a break for you ETFs do treat just exactly like stocks. You can buy and sell them just like you would do regular stocks They have their own tickers and everything just read about them. And so and today's video wouldn't be looking at again my top five Vanguard dividend paying ETF. So when the jump on the computer just kind of work through them And then I'll conclude and tell you which one is my favorite. All right So when we look here the first one on my list here is a VGT. So that's the vanguard dividend appreciation ETF and again, this I'm not ranking this in order of priority. So I'm just showing you this top five So we see VGT here. If you look at the experience ratio here is 6.06 which is really low But there's other ETFs that are lower than that but at 0.06 Again to me, that's not as bad. I've seen ETFs that are charging close to about 1% Expense ratio. So if you look at here, this is the price of the ETF This is your current dividend yield, which is about 2.2% Let's look at the the price and performance over the years of this ETF So right now your 52 week high has been 130 dollars Your 52 week low here is 89 dollars So if you look at let's say a hyper 30k 10 000 dollars invested in this particular ETF Let's say you invested that in 2010 by 2020 you should have had about 31 000 dollars So you go from 10 000 to 31 In just in the span of about uh, say 10 years, which is which is awesome You'll see this dip here in 2020 because of the crisis that we had But it's definitely going to go back. If you look at the growth of this particular ETF So since inception the the future growth about 7.54 percent, so that is not super excellent But um, that is like kind of the average range where you would find most Most returns So but what you get here again is that piece of mind that balance and that diversification that you have the ETF So um, you can go read more about the ETF or vanguard has them on your website You can show you details about the portfolio You can look at it. So right here's a blend between Value and growth stocks If you want to see the details, you can show you here. This is a different Securities that are in there. So Different areas. So it's covered different sectors like health care utility technology And then if you go down you look at the top holdings in this particular ETF Microsoft Walmart Procter and Gamble v. Sir Johnson and Johnson Comcast And so just go through it again most of the stocks in there those key holdings Those are dividend aristocrats. You know for sure that this is going to be just fine So that is number one. So let's go to number two Number two for me is vgt. This is a technology ETF Again, they have 52 week high is 273 dollars and your 52 week low is 186 dollars. So Expense ratio here. Let's see. We can find the expensive ratio on this one Real quick here expense ratio is see 0.1 percent So the other one that we looked at earlier was 0.06 and this is 0.1 percent So which tells you that the expenses ratio here is a little bit expensive But now let's look at the rate of return and look at the potential risk here The risk is five. So that's really really high but Again in investing the higher the risk the higher the reward. So that's something that you want to take into account. So if you look at in Vig we talked about A potential or hypothetical $10,000 invested in that particular ETF from 2010 to 2020 Vig went from 10,000 to 31,000 look at where vgt goes. It goes from 10,000 to 50,000 dollars in 10 years. So if you had invested 10,000 dollars in this particular ETF in 10 years It would have been 50,000 dollars That's insane. That's why this is one of my favorite ETFs I bought this ETF back in I think 2014 and I'm loving every bit of it. So Again, these are the different sectors that you'll find in there And so these are the different companies that make up that particular ETF You'll notice that some of the some of the companies actually overlap in the different ETF. So That was number two. So let's go to number three. Number three is vti If you are somebody that's involved in the fire movement And financial independence retire early, you would know about vti Because a lot of these people they invest in this particular ETF So again, you look at the expense ratio if we go back here Just so you see exactly what the expense ratio is. This is 0.03. So a lot cheaper than Um Vgt, but now look at the risk. The risk is a little bit lower, which means that your returns are not going to be as high But now if you look at or to happen 30 to 10,000 dollars invested in 2010 See where you would have had about 32,000 dollars. So, um, yeah So again, you you weigh your options. Look at what works best for you and there you go with it And then let's go to number. I think that's number four Number four would be v o o. Um, this is just a vanguard, um, smp 500 ETF Expense ratio against zero point zero point zero three. That's really low risk is average Um, 52 week high So we can find that So we can See 52 week high where we at 52 week high is three hundred and ten dollars and 52 week low is 204 Dollars, so that's a swing of about a hundred dollars. Um, and then again, look at a hyper 30 care investment of a hundred of a thousand Again, look at a hyper 30 care investment of 10,000 dollars. So it would go from 10,000 dollars in 2010 to 35,000 dollars in 2020. So again, you can see the breakdown Here as to what's in actually in that ETF and last but not the list is of v y m Is the vanguard dividend yield ETF? Expense ratio is zero point zero six If you look at a 52 week high, let's go here so we can actually see that that number 52 week high is about Uh, 94 dollars 52 week low is 61 dollars Hyper 30 care 10,000 dollars invested in 2010. It shows you make about 32 thousand dollars. So, um, those are my top five dividend paying stocks with vanguard As you can see my favorite again here is vgt Which is a technology ETF? I mean like if you look at the numbers it's just ridiculous that if you invested 10,000 dollars In this ETF in 2010 by 2020 you'd have had 50,000 dollars in growth That's crazy. So that's my favorite one. Um, but again, um investment is a risky business invest at your own risk This is just my recommendation. I had to say that do some research. Look at this ETF again And let me know in the comment section. Which of these ETFs do you think is your favorite? Oh, do you know other vanguard ETFs that are better than what I just mentioned in my list here? Pay better dividends than what I just mentioned.
