WisdomTree U.S. Quality Dividend Growth DGRW favors highly profitable stocks with durable competitive advantages that should have the capacity to raise their dividends and generate attractive returns over time. But it ignores firms' records of past dividend growth, which reflects managers' willingness to raise their dividends and the stability of the underlying businesses. As a result, it has tended to exhibit slightly greater volatility than Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF VIG. It also charges a higher fee. All things considered, it warrants a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Bronze.
