Hartford Funds recently conducted one of the most in-depth research studies on dividend stocks over the last 94 years.

The results will blow your mind.

Here is what they found: 👇 1. Since 1960, staggering 85% of the S&P 500's cumulative return has come from reinvested dividends and the power of compounding.

$10,000 invested in the S&P 500 in 1960 without reinvesting dividends?

Turned into $982,072.

$10,000 invested in the S&P 500 in 1960 while reinvesting dividends?

Turned into $6,399,429.

Covered Call ETFs have the potential to immediately boost the yield of your portfolio.

But I will warn you, there are plenty of bad covered call ETFs out there.

Want to know if a covered call ETF can provide sustainable high yield?

Look for growing NAV.

Here's why: 👇 Covered call ETFs generate income by selling call options on stocks they hold.

But here's the catch: If the NAV shrinks over time, the ETF has fewer valuable assets to write calls on.

Less valuable assets = lower call premiums = declining income.

A growing NAV means the ETF can consistently generate strong premiums and maintain (or even grow) its distributions.

One of the best kept secrets of the tax code?

Under the right circumstances-

A married couple in the US can earn up to $126,700 in dividends every year and pay zero in taxes.

Here's how: (thread 👇) Generating $126,700 of federal tax-free money is almost equivalent to generating a before-tax salary of $165,000 (since you would pay approximately 25% in federal taxes)!

In other words, you would need to earn $165,000 from your day job to have the exact same net pay of $$126,700 with qualified dividends.

Is $QQQI the best new income ETF on the market? 🧵

This Covered Call ETF launched just 15 months ago…

➡️ Yields 14%
➡️ Has outperformed the S&P 500
➡️ Won ETF dot com’s “Best New Active ETF”

Here’s why so many investors are taking notice 🧵 1. High Monthly Income, with Stability

QQQI targets holdings in the NASDAQ 100 and uses an options strategy to generate monthly income.

So far, it’s delivering:

QQQI? Smooth, steady payouts.
