Pairing VOO And QDPL To Face Volatility And For Income

Pairing VOO with QDPL balances growth and income, offering resilience amid policy uncertainty and market volatility, especially as AI-driven gains stretch valuations. QDPL delivers a 5.38% yield—more than four times VOO's—using dividend futures and has outperformed its 90% S&P 500 return objective while dampening volatility. A 50/50 VOO/QDPL allocation targets a 3.27% yield, providing substantial income for retirees while maintaining exposure to U.S. equity growth.
