Are you selling $SCHD and other dividend stocks to move into Treasuries? 🧐
Replying to @SCHDETF
The U.S. 10-year Treasury note yield has surged to a 24-year high above 5.30%, surpassing its previous 2007 peak.

My $179.09 $SCHD dividend landed in my Roth, but a dividend isn't free money — the ETF handing back part of what I already owned, in cash. The share price drops by the same amount. I used it to top up: SCHD is now at 675 shares, $IDVO at 87. Did you get a SCHD dividend?

$SCHD SHARE PROGRESS as of Sept 25, 2026 THE STATS Added: +2.0 New Total: 9,220.6 Value: $306,218 Price Return: +28.4% Annual Income: $9,719 Yield on Cost: 4.08% Avg Cost: $25.86 THE STORY $SCHD finally got a little bounce yesterday. 🟢 Is the dip over? Who knows? I added 28 shares the day before and figured I might be able to grab even more Friday if the dip continued. It started lower, and I could’ve bought cheaper than Thursday, but it looked like $SCHD was heading even lower. So I waited. Instead, it bounced. I ended up buying the low of the day…but only grabbed 2 shares. 😂 Sometimes you wait for lower and it just never comes. DIVIDEND PAYOUT MONDAY! Depending on your broker, the $SCHD dividend may hit your account Monday, Monday night, or Tuesday. So there’s definitely more buying to come. 💰 RECENT SHARES ADDED September: +211.6 2026: +885.5 Since Last Dividend: +57.0 Share by share. Keep building. The marathon continues. 🐢

My pension portfolio returned 13.62% a year since 2017. Its benchmark did 15.12%. An S&P 500 ETF did 16.51%. An index would have done better. I still pick stocks. I know why every holding moves, and at retirement I set my own income instead of taking what a fund pays.

📢 $SCHD Q3 2026 DIVIDEND IS HERE! 💵 The official Q3 dividend is: 💰 $0.2665/share That represents: • +2.34% YoY vs Q3 2025 $0.2604 • +5.54% QoQ vs Q2 2026 $0.2525 • 2026 YTD dividend growth: +0.84% • TTM dividend: $1.0541, +1.95% 🗓️ Ex-Dividend: Sept. 23 🗓️ Pay Date: Sept. 28 My final estimate was $0.2714/share, so I missed by: $0.0049/share or about 1.84% The continued surge in shares outstanding clearly mattered more than I ultimately accounted for. After all the work tracking the underlying holdings, dividend increases, special dividends and $SCHD’s rapidly changing share count, we finally have the answer. How many shares will you be multiplying $0.2665 by? 💵

I just checked my insurance stocks and had to double-check the numbers. 📊 +100% average unrealized gain 💰 9.2% average yield on cost ⚖️ 14.8% of my total portfolio Sometimes buying quality at the right price just compounds quietly in the background 📈

Papa John’s ($PZZA) cancelled its dividend, which was last yielding 6%. Yield was “accidentally” high as the falling stock price kept pushing it higher. Deteriorating fundamentals + multi-year underwater dividend coverage = bye-bye dividend. Source: simplysafedividends.com/?aff…

Today, $SCHD made another new all time high ($34.24) and is significantly outperforming the broader market both today and year to date, as some of this year’s biggest winners begin to cool off. Congratulations to everyone who continued holding and buying $SCHD when dividend stocks and value were out of favour. Moments like this are the reward for staying patient when it wasn’t the popular trade. Market leadership is always changing. One year it’s growth. The next it’s value. Then maybe international, small caps, or something else. We don’t spend our time trying to predict those rotations. Instead, we prepare for them. That’s why many of us own both growth and dividend growth. When one side of the portfolio falls out of favour, we don’t abandon it. We simply direct more of our new money toward it. By the time everyone is talking about the “new leader,” we’ve hopefully already been buying it for months. A while ago, growth was leading. Today, it’s $SCHD. Someday leadership will probably rotate again. We don’t try to predict market rotations. We just keep buying what’s out of favour so when leadership changes, we’re already there instead of chasing it. That’s one of the biggest reasons many of us believe in diversification. Not because every investment wins at the same time, but because leadership changes. We let market rotations work for us instead of trying to chase them.
Can’t stop. Won’t stop. 🤯 $SCHD $34.21 🟢 +2.32% today! Another ALL TIME HIGH. 🚀 One record after another. How high can it go? 👀
