Looking at dividend for OUSM, it hasn't moved anywhere for seven years. You expect dividends to grow. An expense ratio of 0.48% makes the ETF even less attractive. A simple S&P500 holding has done much better.
By focusing on dividends alone, you're missing the other key component of the investor's bottom line: performance return. And by the latter measure, the 7-year historical results you mentioned....OUSM is +103.81% while its small cap peers like the IWM (Russell 2000) is +77.04% and IJR (S&P Small Cap 600) is +90.96% over the same time frame. Keep in mind these returns don't include OUSM's dividends, which have been historically higher vs. the previously mentioned small cap ETF peers. Finally, comparing the result of a small cap ETF like OUSM vs. a large cap ETF like SPY or VOO which are linked to the S&P 500 is flawed. For accuracy, it's better to compare ETFs investing in the same category. In the boxing world, comparing a feather weight fighter to a heavy weight fighter is unfair and useless. It's similar in the ETF arena. Thanks for watching and best of success to you. *Past performance is not indicative of future results. The citied figures are 7-year historical performance (not including dividends) and through 8/26/24.
Ousm sounds great. But I see 4 years of no dividend growth. I have zero faith the ETFs dividend will grow more than 20% in a decade. I think ousm needs a filter at least 2 years of dividend growth.
I will consider OuSm
Could you do analyze TDVI etf?

OUSM has "dividend" in the name of the ETF.
👍
