About FDVV
FDVV tracks the Fidelity High Dividend Index, holding large- and mid-cap companies that pay above-average dividends while applying quality and dividend-growth screens. It aims for a higher current yield than the broad market without chasing the very highest yielders.
FDVV is a high-dividend etf from Fidelity that distributes quarterly. Because dividend investing is about both income and the growth of that income, the calculator above lets you model three things independently for FDVV: the starting yield, how fast the dividend grows each year, and how fast the share price appreciates. That separation matters most for high-yield versus dividend-growth choices, where a lower starting yield that grows quickly can overtake a higher static yield over time.
How to use the FDVV calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with FDVV’s current dividend yield from your broker or the fund’s page.
- Set your initial investment and monthly contribution.
- Estimate the dividend growth rate and price growth rate. For a high-dividend etf these can differ a lot — be realistic rather than optimistic.
- Choose your dividend tax rate and whether to reinvest (DRIP), then read the projected value, dividends received, and yield on cost.
The full math, including how the money-weighted return is computed, is on the methodology page.
FDVV dividend FAQ
- Does FDVV pay monthly dividends?
- No. Payments come quarterly: March, June, September and December.
- Is FDVV actively managed?
- No. It aims to match the Fidelity High Dividend Index before fees, so it follows an index rather than a manager’s picks.
- What is FDVV’s expense ratio?
- 0.15% a year, or $15 for every $10,000 invested.
- How does this FDVV dividend calculator work?
- It runs a month-by-month projection: each month it adds your contribution, pays a dividend based on the yield, optionally reinvests it (DRIP), then applies price growth. The page loads pre-filled with FDVV's current yield (about 2.77% as of Oct 13, 2026); adjust the dividend-growth, price-growth, and tax assumptions to fit your own outlook.
- What yield should I use for FDVV?
- As of Oct 13, 2026, FDVV's dividend yield was about 2.77% ($1.714 per share over the trailing year). Yields move with the share price, so use the current figure from your broker rather than a fixed number. Enter the trailing or forward yield, whichever you prefer to model.
- How often does FDVV pay dividends, and when?
- Fidelity High Dividend ETF pays a quarterly dividend; its most recent payment was $0.362 per share, ex-dividend Sep 18, 2026. This calculator compounds monthly and projects annual totals, so it works the same regardless of the payment schedule — the cadence just affects when cash actually lands in your account.
- Is the FDVV projection a guarantee?
- No. It is an educational projection based on the assumptions you enter, held constant. Real dividends can rise, be cut, or stop, and prices fluctuate. Use it to compare scenarios, not to predict returns, and never rely on a single calculator for an investment decision.
