Have Fun!
I noticed that VOO (Vanguard S&P 500 ETF) has a -10.56% dividend percentage listed (although it is the YTD performance) which causes the expected annual dividend to go negative. The yield is currently listed at 1.98% on Yahoo Finance.
Building a portfolio around dividend expectations is definitely useful for many reasons. But predicting dividends is hard. I imagine the dividend payouts for upcoming seasons will be far off previous seasons, and way short of previous analyst forecasts. How do you build or source your forecast levels for this tool, and how do you adjust expectation levels in the light the current economic context?
