CDC: Peculiar Market-Timing Strategy Incapable Of Capturing Sufficient Upside, A Hold
CDC is an index-based ETF that favors less volatile high-yield stocks. Its strategy incorporates a sophisticated market-timing ingredient. CDC offers a lesson on how safety-oriented market-timing strategies can disappoint, especially when downside and upside capture are completely out of proportion. I believe CDC has growth factor-related risks. Valuation and quality are a silver lining, yet they are not necessarily supportive of outperformance.

CDC: Revisiting This Once Top-Performing High-Dividend ETF
CDC was once a top-performing high-dividend ETF, but in 2023, it ranked dead last in the large-cap value ETF category. Past performance was not a good indicator of future results. While its long/cash strategy succeeded in 2020, the underlying portfolio has gradually lost its low-beta advantage. It's now at the same level as SCHD's, which doesn't have a volatility screen. Due to the ETF's high 0.38% expense ratio, CDC and SCHD also offer nearly identical forward dividend yields, but SCHD is a muc...

CDC's Catastrophic Collapse: Diving Into 2023's Worst Dividend ETF
CDC holds 100 stocks selected for their high yield and low volatility characteristics. The ETF was a previous top-performer due to its substantial outperformance during the March 2020 market crash. Unfortunately, CDC lost its way last September, and what followed were disastrous results. Through August, CDC is the worst performer in 2023 among 85 dividend or low-volatility ETFs. Prior research also indicates its unique long/cash strategy only benefits investors approximately 50% of the time. The...

CDC: 4.15% Index Yield, But No Longer Worth Your Money
CDC follows a long/cash strategy that exits equities in favor of Treasuries as markets decline. The Index currently yields 4.15%, or 3.80% after fees if the fund is fully invested. Selections have four consecutive profitable quarters, but comparisons with alternative high-dividend funds suggest it's an insufficient screen. It's why Regional Banks still make up 7% of the portfolio.

CDC: Did September's Reconstitution Benefit Shareholders?
CDC's Index reconstituted about three months ago, resulting in significant changes to the portfolio's fundamentals. Twenty-five companies were added and deleted, mainly because of dividend yield. This article compares the performance of both groups to assess whether these changes were beneficial. I'll also update CDC's fundamentals and compare it to SPHD, another high-dividend and low-volatility ETF.
