The report mainly focuses on the Vanguard ETFs, highlighting their potential for long-term dividend investing. The Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF boasts a 11.6% annualized total return over the past decade despite its current dividend yield of 1.7% being deemed moderate. It emphasizes that the ETF captures stocks with a history of increasing dividends and may appeal to long-term investors looking for compound growth.

The Vanguard International High Dividend Yield ETF offers a promising yield of 4.5% and trades at lower valuations compared to its U.S. equivalent, the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF. This suggests potential upside as investors seek dividend growth coupled with sustained income. Additionally, the prevailing low valuation presents a potential buying opportunity for investors.

Lastly, the report points out the underperformance of the Vanguard Real Estate ETF relative to the S&P 500, citing interest rate sensitivity as a challenge. However, with a projected downturn in interest rates, it hints at a favorable buying landscape for REITs amid high dividend yields. Overall, the report outlines three distinct ETFs with varying strategies that could cater to both income seekers and growth-focused investors.
