Is VIG a good dividend stock?

What the data shows. These are observations, not recommendations — see the disclaimer at the foot of the page.

  • Yield is below the market median1.46% against a median of 2.78%. A lower yield is common among companies that reinvest more of their earnings or whose shares have risen.
  • Payout ratio does not applyThis is a fund. It distributes income received from its holdings rather than paying out of its own earnings, so a payout ratio is not a meaningful measure.
  • Dividend has been cut 3 timesAcross 20 complete years, the annual total fell in 2009, 2016, 2019. The most recent reduction was in 2019.
  • Raised for 12 consecutive yearsA long record of increases suggests both the cash generation to fund them and a management commitment to maintaining them. This figure is derived from payment history and is approximate.
