Hi, My name is Aaron and I‘m with Dividend Stocks Research, and today
were reviewing our recently published article…
![Page 5: What Are The Best Dividend ETFs Right Now?](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042715/558b266cd8b42a470a8b45ff/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Ready to start collecting dividend checks? Then you need to look into an ETF (exchange traded fund) that focuses on a collection of dividend
paying stocks.
![Page 6: What Are The Best Dividend ETFs Right Now?](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042715/558b266cd8b42a470a8b45ff/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
An ETF is a fund that trades on stock market. It is more like a
stock than a mutual fund because it trades real time and usually costs an investor less in fees. An ETF
typically has a lower expense ratio than a mutual fund.
![Page 7: What Are The Best Dividend ETFs Right Now?](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042715/558b266cd8b42a470a8b45ff/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
One of the reasons why: mutual funds need to keep cash on hand
to pay investors who redeem their shares. ETFs, which trade
differently, do not. Mutual fund expenses are typically in the 1-3% range: ETF expenses are
typically less than 1%.

ETF Benefits
Because of their lower expenses, ETFs have become quite popular,
and with this popularity the number of new ETFs is exploding!
For dividend investors, this provides an ideal way to target different types of investments.

It is a simple way to create a “portfolio within a portfolio” of
dividend stocks that are designed to achieve different objectives.

For example, you may wish to allocate a certain amount of
money to low yield, safe dividend stocks, and another amount of
money to stocks that pay higher yields, but come with a
higher risk.
