OVERVIEW
What SCHD Is Designed to Do
SCHD seeks to track a dividend-focused U.S. equity index. Unlike a broad market-cap index, its methodology selects and weights a smaller group of dividend-paying companies according to index rules.
As of mid-September 2026, the portfolio held 102 positions. Health care, consumer staples and energy were among its largest sector exposures, making its factor and sector profile materially different from a broad growth-heavy index.

- Equity-market drawdowns
- Dividend-factor concentration
