Its largest sector weight is 25.5% to utilities while the telecommunications and real estate sectors, also known for their high dividend traits, combine for 27.8% of the fund’s weight.

The average market capitalization of RDIV’s holdings is $37.41 billion. While some high dividend strategies also feature high valuations, RDIV’s price-to-earnings ratio of just over 15 implies a discount to the S&P 500. The ETF yields 4.92%.
