Hi @Epi, I’ll be asking myself that very question soon, too. Even though we completely avoid dividend ETFs in our portfolios ;), I’ve been wondering whether it might be better to start with a small allocation—for example, $TDIV —of about 5%, more as a “placebo” (kudos to you, because they can help).
1. Limited risk of loss relative to total capital
2. A small boost to returns in a positive market environment
3. Dividends (even if they’re small) as a positive catalyst for adding another ETF
Whether it’s less volatile in stressful scenarios than, say, the MSCI World, I’ll leave that aside for now.
Cheers and have a great weekend

@gorehammer Yeah, thanks for the suggestion! A "homeopathic dose" of the HighDivLowVola ETF could be a good place to start.
