International Dividend Income ETFs

Each of these funds really has a fairly robust multifactor strategy that takes a look at yield, dividend history, and quality. So, you're really getting a pretty well-developed, well-rounded, high-quality portfolio that's really ideal if you're going to invest in international stocks for dividend income. Mike kind of ran down the whole strategy with IDVO.
Even that one looks at dividend growth and earnings growth. You don't see that in a lot of covered call strategies. A lot of them will just overwrite an index and call it a day. But like Mike said, this one's actively managed, has some screens in there, and it's trying to be very opportunistic. So, in that sense, I think IDVO is really good among covered call strategies.
I tend to kind of take the opposite stance. I like the more traditional dividend equity products, and between SCHY and LVHI, I think it's really close. I'd probably give just the slightest of advantages to SCHY here.
Both of these funds look at sustainable earnings and cash flows and debt levels and ROE, and it gives some consideration to high yield. SCHY even has a low volatility tilt to it, even though it's not specifically, you know, explicitly stated like LVHI.
