CGDG
Capital Group Dividend Growers ETF
stock NYSE ETF

month-to-month shifts are almost always noise for dividend playbooks; the real story is the long‑term CAGR and drawdowns. CGDV's 2.58% loss is the shallowest of the bunch, matching its larger weighting in US large‑caps and lower expense. DGRO still pulls ahead in total return when we look beyond a single month, but CGDG can offer a higher yield if you need cash flow before retirement. Depends on your tax situation, I'd keep CGDV in the taxable side and reserve CGDG or a higher‑yield ETF for a tax‑advantaged bucket.

CGDG is a dumpster fire. I actually really like Capital Group but that fund is NOT it.

CGDV looking solid. I'll have to do some DD.

yes, and I hold CGDV in my taxable growth / value portfolio.
But I am considering adding CGDG in my dividend focuses portfolio (retirement account).
Need more yield and plan to use the divs in less than 5 years
Also, there is a large difference in the dividend growth per stockanalysis.com

Didn't notice the symbol differences until now.
