“Best 3 ETF Portfolio Buy & Hold FOREVER (BEST Simple Investing)”
SCHD is the preferred dividend fund for long-term holding given its low volatility (beta ~0.69), growing dividends, and downside protection.
For this reason, I want a dividend fund, and the best option in my opinion is SCHD, which is the Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF.
Look at its beta coefficient. SCHD's beta coefficient is approximately 0.69. That is, it fluctuates 30% less than the S&P 500 index. That is exactly what I am looking for.
