SCHD is part of a plan to make the portfolio easier for my wife to manage in the likely case that I die before she does.
With a record of a decade of double digit year over year dividend increases, it is the royalty of dividend growth ETFs.
If by going nowhere fast you are referring to share price appreciation, I suggest you look at a look at a 10 year chart, but share price appreciation is not really the goal with making it 5.5% of our portfolios at this time.
As you do that, keep in mind that the SPY dividend yield is 1.3% while SCHD's is about 2.9%.

Maximizing total return is not a goal of mine.
A reliable, safe and increasing dividend cash flow is. I will not buy the S&P due to its paltry dividend yield.
As I have written before - Four Pillars -1) current yield, 2) dividend safety, 3) dividend growth and 4) valuation at time of purchase.
I will not consider anything with a yield below 2%.
Satisficing results in those four pillars is an objective of mine
RE: What I Am Buying Today. - fenders53 - 01-30-2022
That's all good. My port is mixed and the bottom line does matter to me. SCHD total return is only 1% less. That's impressive IMO as the index has been hot lately. I use 10yr backtests as the last five are probably dream returns vs the next decade. Can't know for sure of course. I am pretty sure SCHD does more than OK vs index if market gets rough. I hope we don't test that theory but I td seems possible.

Looks like TECH has bottomed. Look at it go
I bought a few new names today EPD, LPX, DFS and SCHD
RE: What I Am Buying Today. - Mr1share - 01-31-2022
NOC and LHX on my watch list. NOC at $350 and LHX at $190 will be my target
This sector should continue to see downward pressure. LHX report was not that encouraging

Used some accumulated dividends to purchase some STOR and SCHD this morning
Will have more accumulated dividends to spend on Wednesday, and I will be buying something then.
Each purchase brings with it a new dividend income record

OK not really. Just bored and enjoying a green port today. Taking a few option profits is about all I have on the agenda.

Have "left over" Roth divs today. I usually drip in that account as it's so small but I sold T and BMY after ex-div in January. Plan to pick up a share of ABBV at open. Considered BBY and WSM and might have gone with Best Buy but ABBV is the smaller position based on my use of cash to initially buy and the price is OK. Not a bargain as I think the other two are right now but reasonable.

RIO is in the news today, and not for a good reason. I doubt this effects the stock price, but I hope they fix this issue.
RE: What I Am Buying Today. - rnsmth - 02-01-2022
Portfolio management and reinvestment of accumulated dividends.
We have three positions that have probably reasonable valuations and are slightly underweight, TU, STOR and TXN. We have an ETF (SCHD) that is near the upper end of my buy zone.
This morning I will add to STOR and SCHD. It ain't rocket science at this point of my investing career.
