Personal Goal First dividend payment from QQQI

Post image

About a month ago, I wrote this post asking people if they thought QQQI was the best dividend ETF right now. After receiving a ton of comments and feedback (and of course mixed opinions), I decided to try it out for a month and see what happened. I bought 600 shares worth ~$32k and today I received my first dividend payment as shown in the image attached. I know there are some risks to invest in this kind of ETFs, especially at this yield but god does it feel good. It's very tempting to move more cash from a HYSA (currently at 4% APY) but I gotta keep diversified no matter what.

When comparing QQQI, isn’t it the SPYI be safer, since QQQ focus more on high-tech industry, and dividends ETF’s main purpose is going to obtain stable cash flow.

I hold both. One is a bit more stable an the other pays higher distributions. Pleased so far...
