SPYD Just Did The Unthinkable: Matching SPY In A Growth Market
The SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 High Dividend ETF (SPYD) has outperformed the benchmark SPY since June 2022, challenging the notion that yield‑focused funds lag in growth markets.

Analysts project the fund could continue matching or beating SPY through 2026 if tech consolidation persists. The author recommends buying SPYD while holding SPY to balance income and growth exposure.
