Welcome to the Parachute Podcast, where host Tom Lydon discusses the experience, wit and wisdom of people of influence in the area of finance and investing.

You’ve landed at a place where advisors and investors are looking to learn from others.

A financial parachute offers you safety over time. But your parachute is different from everyone else’s. It’s made from experiences, time, people you know and your own individual interests.

How much time and effort you put into building your parachute will determine how safely you will land.

But first, you need the guts to jump.

ETF of the Week: SmartETFs Dividend Builder ETF (DIVS)

Aug 12, 2021

ETF Trends CEO Tom Lydon discussed the SmartETFs Dividend Builder ETF (DIVS) on this week’s “ETF of the Week” podcast with Chuck Jaffe on the MoneyLife Show.

This ETF offers exposure to small cap U.S. stocks that maintain attractive dividend yields, making it one of many tools available to investors looking to enhance the current returns delivered from the equity side of their portfolio. DIVS can be used in a number of different ways; this ETF might be an appealing short-term tactical tool for those looking to shift holdings towards safer dividend stocks, or could also be used as a core holding in place of a more traditional small cap fund in a long-term portfolio.
