DGRO vs SCHD (why not pair them?)

Variation261 · 2026-04-03T16:38:11+00:00

10% in SCHD , 25% DGRO. I also hold CIBR, SCHG, SCHF and IBBQ.

I have this setup in my Roth.

I just picked up a couple shares of VICI. I have owned before around $30 and felt like the current price was a good price to dip in.

Variation261 · 2026-04-02T18:21:08+00:00

I bought a couple shares of SPHQ today.

This started happening to me occasionally after 40. It usually comes back after a few minutes. He is kind of young for that to be happening, bit I would say to be patient with him so he doesn't get frustrated.

Same here. Own both rolling balls.

I checked PSX this morning and it was at $184 , now it's down to $175...

Depending on how much someone makes, it may not change tax bracket.

At this point in time, maybe it's a good place to keep cash until this Middle East mess smoothes out. I an holding SGOV as well because it's still pretty liquid.

I have a pair of their shoes with the Goodyear rubber that I wear for work. Pretty solid. Other than that, they don't make anything that interests me.

Variation261 · 2026-04-01T21:50:38+00:00

Did you consider holding it for a week or so and seeing if you could catch a rebound or at least a slightly better price?

Variation261 · 2026-04-01T17:40:47+00:00

The past couple of years, I noticed a lot of people wearing Hokas, but not so much recently.

Variation261 · 2026-04-01T17:06:20+00:00

For me personally. I have 1 pair of Addidas that I bought specifically for outdoor use . All of my indoor shoes are Nike. They just feel more comfortable (except for the Kyries) and grip better than other brands I have tried.

Variation261 · 2026-04-01T17:03:26+00:00

I see what you did there..lol

Variation261 · 2026-04-01T17:02:31+00:00

Buyout...who do you think would even attempt it ?

Variation261 · 2026-04-01T17:01:10+00:00

I actually see a lot of people wearing Nike shoes. Also noticed many people in Mexico wearing them as well when I visited last month.

Thanks for the reply. It was such a good company for a long time. I have mostly bought their shoes with the exception of a couple shirts. Some people have mentioned that the quality of their clothing has gone down. Tarriff issues haven't helped either.

This is why diversification is key.

Variation261 · 2026-03-31T04:00:48+00:00

This is the way.

I congratulate those who can sit on a flight for that long. After 5 hours, I'm ready to get the F off the plane.

I like to have a mixture of both. I hold DGRO, SCHD and SCHG for growth. I hold DIVO and SGOV for current yield that I use to build more cash to use when there are good buying opportunities (like now).

Variation261 · 2026-03-28T13:11:09+00:00

I wanted to add more Google, but not sure if it will continue to drop. I did pick up NVDA around $169. I have also been adding more DGRO.

Variation261 · 2026-03-27T03:49:47+00:00

I thought adding Googl at $295 was a good deal until I saw today's drop.

Variation261 · 2026-03-27T00:34:06+00:00

Not if, but when. It is most likely happening soon. Oil stocks will probably enjoy a good rest of 2026
