I purchased BST about a week ago. I wan't big dividends, but I never invest in anything that has a constant decline. So I do not have QYLD. RYLD and XYLD are better than QYLD imo and are ok.
BST is not for the "faint of heart", there are serious down swings as well as upswing with BST as compared to QYLD. During the recent stock market downturn of mid-Nov 2021 to mid-Mar 2022, BST lost value of 29% compared to QYLD 17%. Today, Mar 28th, BST is down 21% compared to QYLD is down 8.5%
The newer Blackrock S&T Trust is BSTZ and it may be a better buy at its lower price per share with a little bit of a higher dividend yield, 0.7% higher yield. Take a look
Well, I think most people like QYLD mainly is it is a monthly dividend payer, QQQ isn't, and have you looked at the chart of BST in the last year, it is going down to
I rather have QYLD since it always stays around the same price range, than BST, sptrader said, not about growth, it is a consistent share price, always hovers between 20 - 25 dollars, and BST isn't even ETF, you don't even know what companies they are investing in.
QYLD has an 8 year track record of consistent, huge dividends, most others are new by comparison, with much lower dividends. You purchase QYLD for large income not growth.
what are you talking about you want qyld to tank keep going down so you can buy more shares, people who invest in qyld are looking for income that dry powder, that big green, them benjamins, that liquidity to do what ever you want so you are crazy
Great

Agreed I made a video comparing XYLD and QYLD a few months ago.
@@FinanceTheory with taxes rising I prefer flat line high dividend stocks.

Fair point. Looking at a multi year holding strategy however BST should fair better for portfolio value over QYLD.

I have a video on BSTZ, called alternatives to QYLD
BST dividends are considered long term capital gains as well, so favorable tax treatment there. BST is a far superior fund in my opinion.
I just looked at BST, it's dropped $18 in the past year, am I missing something?

What is capital gains 23% or 28%. Dividends are taxed at what 10%. 18% is a lot to me. Even 13% is a lot to me. Not exactly a percent or 2.
Dividend yield is more important to me than total return. The return on yield is still low. 7% is less than 11% or 12%.
What do you think of QQQX as an alternative to QYLD?
Also capital gains is too high. Take that into account.
good points
