Comparison of NOBL, VOO, and SCHD yields and expense ratios
Comparison of NOBL, VOO, and SCHD yields and expense ratios
Interesting comparison on dividend ETFs. NOBL is currently yielding 2.1% versus VOO's 1.09%. NOBL tracks 68 Dividend Aristocrats (companies with 25+ years of increases) and uses equal-weighting. This avoids the concentration risk in VOO where the top 10 holdings make up 40% of the fund.
The trade-off is the cost. NOBL has a 0.35% expense ratio compared to VOO's 0.03%. NOBL leans heavily into Industrials and Consumer Staples rather than Tech.
Specific holdings like Caterpillar and JNJ have strong financials supporting their payouts, though Albemarle is seeing some pressure from lithium pricing.
If you're just looking for yield, SCHD is sitting at 3.8% with a 0.06% expense ratio. It tracks 100 stocks screened for financial strength rather than just consecutive increase streaks.

NOBL’s the steady grinder, VOO’s the cheap growth king, and SCHD’s the yield plug. Just depends if you want safety, upside, or straight cash flow hitting your account.
