The Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF offers a yield of 1.8%, higher than the S&P 500's 1.3%, but is not considered a high-yield investment. It focuses on companies that have consistently raised their dividends for over a decade while avoiding high-yielding stocks, which may be at risk of cutting dividends. While the ETF can provide modest dividends and some capital appreciation over time, there are better alternatives available for both income and total return, such as the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF and standard S&P 500 ETFs. Therefore, while it may not be a bad choice, investors should consider other options for potentially greater returns.
