SCHD-Inspired 4-Factor Dividend Growth Strategy Selections For November 2026

The 4-Factor Dividend Growth Strategy targets quality and total return, outperforming SCHD with a 14.98% average return versus SCHD's 14.31%. I select stocks based on free cash flow to debt, 5-year dividend growth, return on capital employed, and forward yield, emphasizing growth and quality. Recent SCHD outperformance has narrowed the gap, but my strategy has regained momentum since September 2026.
