As of November 9, 2026, DGRW yields 1.24% (trailing 12-month) and SCHD yields 2.96% (trailing 12-month), so SCHD currently pays the higher yield. A higher yield does not guarantee a higher total return.
Over the past year with dividends reinvested, DGRW returned +12.96% and SCHD returned +38.08%. Over five years, DGRW returned +68.77% and SCHD returned +62.57%. Past performance does not predict future results.
With dividends reinvested, $10,000 invested one year before November 9, 2026 would have grown to about $11,296 in DGRW and $13,808 in SCHD.
DGRW pays monthly (12 payments in the last 12 months) and SCHD pays quarterly (4 payments).
It depends on your goals, time horizon and tax situation. Income-focused investors often weigh yield and payment frequency, while long-term investors usually compare total return and fees. Dividend Duel is an educational tool and does not provide investment advice.
Compare payment history with total return and fees. Check whether a larger current yield comes with different drawdowns or less consistent distributions; a dividend-growth label does not promise future increases.
