Mastering Wealth: The Power of a Three-Fund ETF Strategy
Embracing Simplicity in Investment Strategies
While I typically delve into the intricacies of individual companies, my recent focus has shifted towards the elegance of a simplified investment framework. This new perspective involves divesting from individual stocks to construct a robust portfolio using just three exchange-traded funds.
The Foundational Pillar: SPYM as a Core Holding
At the heart of this strategy lies SPYM, acting as the primary anchor for the portfolio. This ETF provides broad exposure to the S&P 500, offering a cost-effective alternative that has historically demonstrated superior performance compared to similar funds like VOO and VTI over the past decade.
Driving Growth with SCHG: A Technology-Focused Engine
To propel long-term growth, SCHG is strategically integrated into the portfolio. Its substantial allocation to the technology sector positions it for strong performance, consistently outperforming its counterparts. Furthermore, its exceptionally low expense ratio of 0.04% enhances its appeal as a growth-oriented investment.
Generating Income and Sustained Growth with DGRO
Completing the trifecta, DGRO is selected for its ability to deliver consistent, tax-efficient income and foster dividend growth. This fund has shown a track record of outperforming SCHD, primarily due to its diversified exposure to the technology sector and its emphasis on high-quality holdings.
