"The Vanguard Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIG) delivers income by investing in large-cap companies with a track record of increasing their dividends year over year. Companies that can do this could have the potential to also deliver significant capital growth. VIG generates a yield of about 1.62% and it has a five-year return of around 58%."
"The fund's main holdings are in information technology, financials and healthcare. Its main focus, the IT sector, has benefited from the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). This could also help the fund provide investors with intense growth. Moreover, Vanguard stands out in the industry for its low-fee funds. And VIG is no exception. It has a significantly low expense ratio of 0.05%. And it holds net assets of about $119.98 billion"
