Index or dividend etf’s?

What do you prefer? Personally, I’m still on the fence. My strategy thus far has been to have a broad tech ETF (my choice is $XLKS (-0.19%) ), alongside some individual growth and defensive stocks ($D05 (+0.67%) being my favourite) I’m currently heavily in tech and was wondering what all of you think, establishing a big position alongside my existing portfolio with a dividend ETF like $TDIV (+0.93%) or $WDIV (-0.17%) or going with regular indexes like $VUSA (+0.41%) or $VWRL (+0.37%) ?

I think it much depends on your personal situation. As an older guy I run a dividend strategy - I intend to generate some cash flow to supplement my income.
My portfolio is based on $TDIV and $WINC to take care of that together with some individual stocks which offer high dividend yields and/or strong dividend growth.

For a younger person the index strategy might be better. For my kids I just set up a monthly investment plan on $VALLD - a world ETF with a very wide coverage and very low fees.

@NichtRelevant Thanks for sharing your perspective. $VALLD certainly looks interesting.
