This ETF is designed to replicate the investment results of the S&P U.S. Dividend Growers Index. It achieves this through a passively managed, full-replication approach, meaning it consistently invests fully in the index's components. The fund primarily targets large-capitalization companies that have a proven track record of consistently increasing their dividends year over year. Its low operational costs are intended to reduce discrepancies between its returns and those of its benchmark index. For at least 75% of its total assets, the fund operates under specific concentration limits: it generally avoids acquiring more than 10% of any single issuer's voting shares or investing over 5% of its total assets in the securities of one company. An exception to these rules can be made if necessary to precisely reflect the composition of its target index. These investment restrictions do not, however, apply to holdings in U.S. government or agency debt.
This calculation uses the DividendFlow Engine v6.0. Data is verified daily against SEC filings and FMP real-time feeds to ensure projection accuracy.

“VIG dividend growth calculator — Vanguard's dividend appreciation ETF is the core of my portfolio. Modeled it at 3% yield with 6% annual dividend growth over 20 years. The yield-on-cost curve was inspiring.”
“Finally a free dividend calculator that doesn't make me sign up or connect my brokerage. Entered SCHD and got the full DRIP projection in seconds. Bookmarked immediately.”
“I've been trying to figure out how much dividend income I'd need to retire. This tool showed me exactly — $400K in JEPI at 7% yield gives me $2,333/month. No calculator did that this clearly before.”
“Really solid passive income calculator. Covers everything: DRIP compounding, Roth IRA tax savings, DCA contributions. The year-by-year breakdown is what I was missing from other tools.”
“As someone planning retirement in 5 years, this dividend yield calculator showed me I need about 12% more in dividend stocks to hit my income target. Incredibly useful and completely free.”
