We all rest on the spectrum between those that call them Boogerheads and those that follow their philosophy, walking down a simple path to wealth via 'SCHD+DGRO and chill'.
There's plenty of reasons to fall into either side of that spread in opinion, and we've definitely heard them all.
But I wanted to open up a Boglehead appreciation thread in the case that some of them might want to spend time on this sub.
Maybe they want actual discussion of different income strategies, maybe they're just opening a brokerage account for their fun money. Doesn't matter, but I'm feeling jolly this time of year and want to point out some BH appreciation as a gesture of goodwill, written in sincerity.

Saw that someone asked whether it was OK investing in individual bonds instead of bond funds. I commented that individual bonds (with high credit ratings) have a better risk/reward profile than bond funds because they mature. Got a bunch of down votes. Talk about a bunch of brain washed sheep!

The way they operates is like a CEF, they don't have any real products just actively managing other stocks.
Is that the right statement ? Or do I miss other products they are offering ?

We got a lot of ETFs now that squeeze a (high) yield out of single tickers such as Tesla or whatever. Is there any one doing that with BRK ?
I found a canadian one but don't really want to mess with Canadian Dollars in my account.

As stated above, as I explore dividend investing and the potential for passive income and a potential supplement for any remaining social security, I have a question or two. The one, specifically, is are paid dividends claimed as short term or long term capital gains. This information is crucial to my calculations, but I expect short term unfortunately. If thats the case does it make more sense to DRIP the dividend and sells shares in the long term?

One of the benefits of a market cap weighted index, such as the S&P500, is that there is fairly low turnover. Low turnover can come with some strong benefits, such as low expense ratio and minimal capital gains distributions (an issue in a taxable account); however, in the extreme of zero turnover it can be detrimental. Imagine a portfolio that is completely static. It is never adjusted much less monitored. Such a portfolio will eventually go to zero (if the dividends were reinvested rather than distributed). All companies, after all, eventually die.
But even the S&P is not a zero turnover index. Companies whose market cap is less than $18 billion (currently) drop out of the index and are replaced. Of those companies with a large...
Just compare the quality of questions and responses in both subs right now and it's clear we got high quality redditors and they do not.
Appreciate the supports and due diligence you are all contributing to this sub, especially r/dividends refugees, hopefully it will continue to be shill-free and a treasure-troves of information for newbies investors wanting to learn or intelligent investors to compare notes.

I am curious as to how you guys are setting your stop losses and how often you review them? Currently I have mine as a percentage of my cost price, but then I know others who don't have anything set, so interested to know this subs thoughts?

I recently discovered this company, as I am looking to increase my exposure to utilities. It has a +5% yield and has been growing dividends for the last 13 years at about 5% as well, meaning it surpasses the chowder rule which is set at 8% for utilities. The payout ratio is really low at 30%.
The stock is close to its 52 weeks low, and has a PE of almost 9, indicating that it might be undervalued. The 5% yield is also higher than it has been in the last few years, also indicating a possible undervaluation. Other indicators such as price/sales might also indicate undervaluation.
Looking at yahoo finance I see that in the last months some analysts have started following the stock, which now has 5 strong buy recommendations, 6 buys, 3...
As the saying goes, everyone is a genius in a bull market. Let's discuss risks of covered call ETFs like JEPI/JEPQ/DIVO, etc.
What happens to these etfs if the market, which is at nosebleed territory, takes a 20-25% correction and takes 10 years to regain current highs? If you think this is impossible, look at the potential impact of tariffs and deportations on inflation forecasts. We could experience the 1970s with a second inflation peak. In that event, a 20% drop would be an underestimate.
So for all the investors who think JEPI/Q is a great way to generate income during your retirement, what are your thoughts on this scenario?

Here's a brief breakdown on SCHD. I think it can be a vey effective investment in retirement. I hope you find this useful. Please let me know if there are any questions or mistakes. Happy returns and Happy Thqanksgiving!
Table 1: SCHD Dividend Growth (2013–2023)
This table shows the yearly dividends paid per share of SCHD over the last decade and the percentage increase in those dividends.
In 2013, SCHD paid $0.90 per share.
By 2023, it paid $2.66 per share—a 195% increase over the decade.
To put that into perspective:
1,000 shares would have earned $900 in dividends in 2013.
The same 1,000 shares earned $2,666 in 2023.
If this growth rate continues, those shares could generate $5,332 in dividends annually by 2033.
Year...
FEPI = $1.09
AIPI = $1.51

Hi A newbie investor here.
What are the best stocks to invest in for the purpose of getting regular income in the form of dividends?? Of course if share price went up at a later date would be good too, but main purpose is to get dividends above bank rates and inflation taken into consideration.
