After the 3-for-1 split, the price per share is approximately <strong>$28.34</strong>, but shareholders will now own three times as many shares. This means if you held 100 shares worth $8,502 pre-split, you would now have 300 shares, but your total investment value remains the same.</li> <li><strong>Increased Accessibility</strong>: Lowering the price per share makes SCHD more accessible to individual investors who may prefer to buy full shares rather than fractional ones. The new lower price point could appeal to cost-conscious investors looking to add dividend-focused ETFs to their portfolios without a high entry price.</li> </ul> <h2><strong>Who Is SCHD Right For?</strong></h2> <p>SCHD is a fund designed for <strong>income-focused investors</strong> who want exposure to <strong>high-quality U.S. dividend-paying companies</strong>. The ETF targets firms that have a strong track record of paying consistent dividends, making it a great fit for:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Long-term, income-seeking investors</strong>: Those who want to receive steady dividends while also benefitting from capital appreciation.</li> <li><strong>Retirees or near-retirees</strong>: Investors who are looking for a reliable income stream in retirement, as SCHD focuses on companies with a history of dividend growth.</li> <li><strong>Cost-conscious investors</strong>: With its low expense ratio of 0.06%, SCHD offers a low-cost option to gain exposure to large, stable U.S. companies with strong dividend histories.</li> </ul> <h2><strong>Top Holdings in SCHD</strong></h2> <p>The fund currently holds 103 stocks, and its top holdings are blue-chip companies with strong financials and robust dividend-paying capabilities.
