What this fund is

Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Schwab, traded under the ticker SCHD (ISIN US8085247976). It lets you buy a basket of holdings in a single trade, spreading your money across them rather than one company. In plain terms it is about owning small slices of companies, so you share in their growth when they do well — and their falls when they don't, spread across its target market. Its largest holdings include HOME DEPOT INC, UNITEDHEALTH GROUP INC and MERCK & CO INC.

With about 103 holdings (the ten largest ≈ 41.7%), your money is diversified rather than concentrated in a handful of names. By geography it is weighted towards ~97.7% US, ~2% IE and ~0.2% SE. By industry it concentrates most in ~20.3% Consumer Staples and ~20.1% Health Care. It is commonly used to tilt a portfolio towards one market, usually alongside broader, more global funds rather than on its own. Its ongoing charge (TER) is 0.06% a year — about €6 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund.

It holds the underlying investments directly (physical replication); it is domiciled in the United States and trades in USD. Its price has swung about 11% over the past year — a gauge of how much the value moves, not a judgement of quality. As with any investment, its value can go down as well as up, and past performance is not a guide to future results. (Fund data sourced from Schwab.)

How this works: an educational scenario, not a forecast. We compound monthly and add your monthly amount each month. “Expected annual return” is your own assumption — pick a cautious one; real markets are bumpy and can fall. “Adjust for inflation” simply restates the result in today’s spending power. The fee figure includes the yearly fund fee (TER) and the growth those fees would otherwise have earned. The fund comparison repeats each fund’s last-12-months return every year — a rough illustration only, which real funds never do. Not advice.
