The Vanguard ETF Built for Investors Who Want Dividends That Actually Grow

The Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG) focuses on large-cap companies with at least 10 consecutive years of dividend growth rather than current yield. With a low 0.04% expense ratio and holdings including tech stocks like Broadcom, Apple, Visa, and Cisco, VIG has delivered 13.3% annualized returns over 10 years, outperforming high-yield dividend ETFs. The strategy allows investors to build a growing income stream that can double every decade while achieving potentially superior total returns.
