About SPHD
SPHD selects S&P 500 stocks that combine high dividend yield with low historical volatility, and pays monthly. It aims for steady income with a smoother ride than a pure high-yield screen.
SPHD is a high-dividend etf from Invesco that distributes monthly. Because dividend investing is about both income and the growth of that income, the calculator above lets you model three things independently for SPHD: 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 SPHD calculator
- Replace the pre-filled yield with SPHD’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.
