AI-generated source summary
The S&P 500 has seen a 13% year-to-date gain. Three ETFs, SCHD, SPMO, and VYM, have outperformed this benchmark. SCHD, a dividend growth ETF with an expense ratio of 0.06%, has delivered over 30% returns, beating the S&P 500 by approximately 20 percentage points. Its outperformance is attributed to its focus on quality companies with strong cash flows, aligning with market demand for stable assets rather than pure speculation. SPMO, Invesco's S&P 500 momentum ETF (expense ratio 0.13%), has achieved a 28% trailing-year gain and a 10-year annualized return of around 20%. VYM, Vanguard's high-yield dividend ETF (expense ratio 0.04%), has returned approximately 17% year-to-date, outperforming the S&P 500 by four points. All three ETFs share common factors of quality, cash flow, and discipline in their underlying holdings. These are not the 'flashiest' or most hyped ETFs, but rather those composed of companies that consistently earn and maintain strong options positions, enabling them to generate weekly or monthly premiums on top of their performance.
