DTH: Long-Term Inconsistencies But Strong Short-Term Momentum

WisdomTree International High Dividend Fund receives a Hold rating due to inconsistent risk-adjusted returns and higher volatility versus peers. DTH offers strong short-term performance and a 3.97% yield, but lacks quality screening, raising the risk of yield traps and unpredictable long-term results. The fund's high expense ratio (0.58%) and low liquidity further diminish its appeal compared to alternatives like LVHI, which has better risk-adjusted returns.
