I’m refining my 2030 dividend strategy and decided to move my foundation in portfolio from VHYL to LDGL.

​VHYL is okay, but LDGL fits my goals better:

​Less USA-heavy: One of the main reasons I like LDGL is that it’s less concentrated in the US compared to most quality etfs for us Europeans. I prefer the more balanced global spread.

​Quality Filter: It doesn't just chase yield; it filters for companies with actual earnings quality and solid balance sheets. And focus on dividend growth. I still got 30 years until retirement and want to focus more on dividend growth, even though it currently has around 4% yield..

​Monthly Dividends: Getting paid every month instead of quarterly is a huge plus for compounding and staying motivated.

​The "Tech Gap": It doesnt contain any tech, but i partner this with Ishares SP500 and JPM Nasdaq Covered call ETF (those two are smaller positions in portfolio though, around 20% total)

​Anyway, the point of my post, it kind of feels to good to be true for me. And i am really looking for counter arguments, or opinions that enforce my view.

Thoughts on LDGL?

Hello.

Just curious on everyones thoughts on JGPI?

I say a lot of people talk about the weakening of the US dollar as a reason, but other covered call ETFs like the JPM Nasdaq one is performing much better.

Is there still hope for this ETF? I started some months ago putting some of monthly savings in it (also the nasdaq one), but its really just red everyday...

Thoughts?
