Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF only looks at companies (but not real estate investment trusts, or REITs) that have increased their dividends annually for 10 years or more.

Vanguard Intermediate-Term Bond ETF's dividend yield is about 3.5% . That's roughly 40 basis points higher than what you'd collect from Vanguard Short -term Bond Index.

Once a year, rebalance your portfolio back to your preferred stock/bond mix, and you'll be all set! Don’t miss this second chance at a potentially lucrative opportunity.

Right now, we’re issuing “ Double Down ” alerts for three incredible companies.
