You Don't Have to Pick a Winner in Dividend Stocks. Here's Why.
Investing in dividend stocks can be like betting on a horse race. You try to identify the one that you think is most likely to finish ahead of the others. You put your money on it. And then you wait to find out whether or not you were right.
But while the two can be alike, they don't have to be. You don't have to pick a winner in dividend stocks. Here's why.
Instead of buying one, two, or a few individual dividend stocks, you can instead buy an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that owns a basketful of dividend stocks. The ETF will pick the potential winners for you.
