2 Vanguard Index Funds Could Turn $400 Per Month Into $16,800 in Annual Dividend Income by Retirement
The S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) outperformed virtually every other asset classes over the last decade, including bonds, international stocks, precious metals, and real estate. The index also outperformed over 85% of large-cap funds, meaning S&P 500 index funds often produce better returns than professional money managers.
Investors can use that information to build a portfolio that generates large amounts of passive income. For instance, $400 invested monthly in an S&P 500 index fund could grow into $789,500 over three decades. That sum could then be reinvested (less capital gains tax) in a high dividend yield index fund to generate $16,800 in passive income annually.
Here are the important details.
Step 1: Invest $400 per month in the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF
The Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (NYSEMKT: VOO) is a low-cost S&P 500 index fund. It measures the performance of 500 U.S. companies that cover approximately 80% of domestic equities and more than 50% of global equities by market capitalization. In other words, it lets investors spread capital across many of the most influential businesses in the world.
The five largest holdings in the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF are listed by weight below:
-
Apple: 6.9%
-
Microsoft: 6.5%
-
Nvidia: 6.2%
-
Alphabet: 3.7%
-
Amazon: 3.4%
The S&P 500 returned 2,000% during the last three decades, which equates to 10.6% annually. I’ll round down to 10% to introduce a margin of safety. At that rate of return, $400 invested monthly in the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF would be worth $789,500 after three decades. Investors can then sell the index fund and reinvest the proceeds in another fund.
Depending on the account type, investors may have to pay capital gains tax when they sell the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF. The federal taxes on that amount would total about $100,000, but the state taxes would vary. So, I’ll round the total tax burden to $150,000, which leaves $639,500 to reinvest in another index fund with a high dividend yield.
Step 2: Invest $639,500 in the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF
The Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (NYSEMKT: VYM) measures the performance of 550 U.S. companies that are forecasted to pay above-average dividends. Whereas the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF includes value stocks and growth stocks, this index fund leans heavily toward value stocks. The five largest holdings are listed by weight below:
-
Broadcom: 4.2%
-
JPMorgan Chase: 3.6%
-
ExxonMobil: 3%
-
Procter & Gamble: 2.3%
-
Johnson & Johnson: 2.2%
The Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF currently pays a dividend yield of 2.63%. At that rate, the $639,500 from the previous section would generate about $16,800 in annual dividend income. And the payout should increase over time.
The Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF returned 88% over the last decade. At that pace, the total amount invested in the index fund would reach $1.2 million in 10 years, and that total would generate about $31,600 in annual dividend income.
Most people should save more than $400 per month
The median American worker earned $69,240 in after-tax income in 2023, according to the Census Bureau. Financial planners generally recommend saving 20% of after-tax income for retirement. That means the median worker should be saving $13,848 per year, or $1,154 per month.
In that context, $400 per month is a reasonable goal for most people. It would also leave the median worker with $754 per month in additional savings, which could be invested in stocks or other index funds. Either way, the end result should be a sizable nest egg that pays five digits of passive income annually by retirement.

2 Ultra-High-Yield Dividend Stocks With 12%-Plus Yields That Are Ideally Positioned for a Rate-Easing Cycle
One of the best aspects of putting your money to work on Wall Street is there’s no one-size-fits-all investment approach. With thousands of publicly traded companies and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to choose from, there’s bound to be one or more securities that can help you reach your goal(s).
But among the countless ways to build wealth on Wall Street, few strategies have proved more consistently successful than buying and holding high-quality dividend stocks.
The lure of dividend stocks is simple: they’re almost always recurringly profitable and time-tested. A company that regularly shares a percentage of its profit is one that investors rarely have to worry about when going to sleep at night.
More importantly, dividend stocks have absolutely crushed non-payers in the return column over the last 50 years. A report released last year by the investment advisors at Hartford Funds (The Power of Dividends: Past, Present, and Future) compared the performance of income stocks to non-payers over the last half-century (1973-2023). What Hartford Funds found, in collaboration with Ned Davis Research, is that income stocks more than doubled up the average annual return of non-payers — 9.17% vs. 4.27% — over this span.
But this doesn’t mean investors can throw a dart at the newspaper and pick a winner. All dividend stocks are unique, and ultra-high-yielding companies (those with yields four or more times greater than the S&P 500) often come with added risk. Since yield is a function of share price, a company with a failing business model can “trap” income seekers with a lucrative but unsustainable yield.
But not all supercharged high-yield stocks are worth avoiding. With the Federal Reserve kicking off a rate-easing cycle this week, two income stocks with truly eye-popping yields of 12.5% and 13.9% are perfectly positioned to thrive.
The light at the end of the tunnel has arrived for Wall Street’s most-hated industry
While “most-hated” is a bit of a subjective term, there arguably hasn’t been an industry that analysts have disliked for a longer period than mortgage real estate investment trusts (REITs).
Mortgage REITs are companies that aim to borrow money at lower short-term lending rates and use this capital to purchase higher-yielding long-term assets, such as mortgage-backed securities (MBSs), which is how the industry got its name. The goal for mortgage REITs is to maximize their net interest margin, which is the average yield on the assets they own less their average short-term borrowing costs.
As you probably gathered, the mortgage REIT industry is highly sensitive to changes in interest rates. When the nation’s central bank began its steepest rate-hiking cycle in four decades in March 2022, it sent short-term borrowing costs soaring. The result for the mortgage REIT industry was shrinking net interest margin.
And it’s not just higher interest rates that the industry has to worry about. The velocity of monetary policy moves matters, too. If the Federal Reserve makes slow, calculated, and well-telegraphed moves, mortgage REITs have the opportunity to reposition their assets to maximize returns. But with the Fed chasing a four-decade peak in the prevailing rate of inflation, slow-stepping its rate-hiking cycle quickly went out the door.
Pretty much every publicly traded company in the mortgage REIT industry has seen its book value decline — most mortgage REITs trade very close to their respective book value — and net interest margin shrink since March 2022.
However, the light at the end of the tunnel has finally arrived for Wall Street’s most-hated industry. Annaly Capital Management (NYSE: NLY) and AGNC Investment (NASDAQ: AGNC), which sport respective yields of 12.5% and 13.9%, now have an excellent chance to outperform.
Annaly and AGNC are ideally positioned to thrive during a rate-easing cycle
With the prevailing rate of inflation cooling to 2.5% in August, the lowest reading observed since February 2021, the nation’s central bank was given every incentive in the world to undertake a rate-easing cycle.
When the Fed shifts to a dovish monetary policy and lowers the federal funds rate, it tends to reduce short-term borrowing costs and allows the net interest margin for Annaly and AGNC Investment to expand. At the same time, these two leading mortgage REITs have been able to scoop up MBSs with higher yields over the last two years, which can provide a further lift to their respective net interest margin.
Equally important, the Fed is currently walking on egg shells with regard to monetary policy. After leaving the federal funds rates at historic lows for too long and, in hindsight, overshooting to the upside in the wake of high inflation, the Federal Open Market Committee is liable to slow-step any further changes. Well-telegraphed moves will allow Annaly and AGNC to position to their portfolios for optimal success.
A rate-easing cycle would also be expected to lead to an eventual normalization of the yield curve.
Normally, the Treasury yield curve slopes up and to the right. This is to say that longer-dated bonds set to mature 30 years from now sport higher yields than Treasury bills that will mature in a year or less. We’ve recently witnessed the longest yield-curve inversion in history, with short-term yields handily outpacing long-term bonds. When the yield curve normalizes, mortgage REITs shine.
The final piece of the puzzle for Annaly Capital Management and AGNC Investment is that they predominantly invest in agency securities. An “agency” asset is one that’s backed by the federal government in the unlikely event of default.
Annaly closed out the June-ended quarter with $66 billion of its $74.8 billion portfolio tied up in highly liquid agency assets, while AGNC had all but $1 billion of its $66 billion portfolio allotted to agency MBSs and various agency securities. The added protection Annaly and AGNC enjoy from agency securities allows both companies to prudently lever their portfolios to maximize profits and sustain their outsized dividends.
Although both companies have vastly underperformed in the current bull market, Annaly and AGNC appear ready for their moment in the spotlight.

S&P 500, Dow Jones Hit Record Highs: Magnificent 7 Add $400 Billion After Fed's Historic Interest Rate Cut
Bulls are stampeding across Wall Street on Thursday in the wake of the Federal Reserve’s decision to cut interest rates for the first time in over four years.
The central bank’s bold move, a 50-basis-point cut, caught analysts off guard and sent the U.S. stock market to fresh record highs at the opening of Thursday’s session.
The S&P 500 soared to a new all-time high, reaching 5,700 points. Similarly, the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed to an unprecedented 42,000 points.
In the first 30 minutes of trading, the S&P 500 and Dow Jones rose by 1.4% and 1%, respectively. The Nasdaq 100 climbed 1.5%, although the Russell 2000, representing small-cap stocks, outperformed with a surge of over 2%.
The market rally was primarily driven by the Magnificent Seven: Microsoft Corp. MSFT, Apple Inc. AAPL, NVIDIA Corp. NVDA, Alphabet Inc. GOOG GOOGL, Amazon Inc. AMZN, Meta Platforms Inc. META and Tesla, Inc. TSLA. Each of the Magnificent Seven are recording daily gains ranging from 1.5% to 4.5%, solidly in positive territory.
Chart: S&P 500 Hits Record Highs
Strong Labor Market Eases Slowdown Fears, Analysts Boost Rate-Cut Wagers
Thursday’s economic data further boosted investor confidence. Weekly jobless claims came in well below expectations, suggesting a lower-than-expected trend of rising unemployment.
Continuing jobless claims also dropped more than expected, hinting at a potential absorption of long-term unemployed individuals into the job market.
This data alleviated concerns about rising unemployment and provided a more optimistic outlook for the economy.
Wall Street analysts quickly adjusted their expectations following the Federal Reserve’s rate cut. There is now growing anticipation of additional rate cuts, diverging from the cautious tone expressed in the Fed’s September “dot plot” and Chair Jerome Powell‘s remarks during the press conference.
Notably, Goldman Sachs economist Jan Hatzius revised his forecast from expecting a 25-basis-point cut at every other meeting to predicting a rate cut at every meeting. He even left the door open for a back-to-back 50-basis-point reduction in November.
Thursday’s 5 Top-Performing S&P 500 Stocks
Among the S&P 500, the top five performers as of 10 a.m. ET were:
| Name | 1-day Return |
| Darden Restaurants, Inc. DRI | 7.46 |
| Airbnb, Inc. ABNB | 5.27 |
| Cadence Design Systems, Inc. CDNS | 4.40 |
| Lam Research Corporation LCRX | 4.34 |
| NVIDIA Corporation NVDA | 4.33 |
Thursday’s 5 Top-Performing Dow Jones Industrial Average Stocks
Among the Dow Jone, the top five performers were:
| Name | 1-day Return |
| Apple Inc. AAPL | 3.02 |
| Salesforce, Inc. CRM | 3.01 |
| The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. GS | 2.80 |
| Caterpillar Inc. CAT | 2.71 |
| American Express Company AXP | 2.67 |

3 Beaten-Down Dividend Stocks to Load Up on Right Now
Expectations and narratives can drive stock movements. A company’s failure to deliver on expectations can lead to investor disappointment and a poorly performing stock. Honeywell (NASDAQ: HON), United Parcel Service (NYSE: UPS), and Chevron (NYSE: CVX) may be industry-leading companies, but they have all disappointed investors recently, and their share prices have suffered as a result.
Despite their challenges, all three of these dividend stocks are worth a closer look now. Here’s why.
Honeywell has failed to capitalize on megatrends
For several years now, Honeywell has discussed the growth potential of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), which is basically the overlap of software and hardware. Instead of monitoring the performance of stand-alone machinery, IIoT can connect a fleet using sensors and electronic components. An integrated system can provide data-driven insights, allowing operators to be proactive rather than reactive to equipment performance and maintenance cycles.
In addition to its opportunities in the IIoT space, Honeywell has focused on the energy transition and a need for smarter buildings and warehouses that automate functions and consume less energy than older ones. It has a growing oil and gas, hydrogen, and liquefied natural gas business.
Honeywell’s largest segment is aerospace. It provides parts, components, controls, integrated solutions, and more for the commercial aerospace and defense industries. It even has a $5 billion quantum computing business.
Yet despite its exposure to all of these exciting themes, Honeywell’s results have fallen flat. Revenue has rebounded from its pandemic lows, but is still below where it was before the crisis. Operating margins and diluted earnings per share (EPS) are also ticking higher, albeit slowly.
Management has implemented an aggressive capital allocation program centered around mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and share buybacks to spur EPS growth. A core strength of Honeywell has been its balance sheet, but its leverage is likely to increase as it follows its plan to deploy billions more on M&A and stock repurchases.
Honeywell has increased its dividend every year since 2011 and its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio today is below its three-, five-, and seven-year median levels. Given its growing dividend and reasonable valuation, Honeywell looks like a worthwhile turnaround play for investors who believe that its recent slew of acquisitions will help drive growth across its targeted themes.
The worst may be over for UPS
UPS stock soared during the pandemic as consumers shifted from in-person shopping to home delivery. The shipping and logistics giant expanded routes, thinking that the growth in package delivery volumes would remain elevated even after the pandemic, but that forecast proved painfully inaccurate.
Throw in expensive pension obligations and a messy contract negotiation process with the Teamsters Union, and it’s easy to see why UPS stock fell out of favor.
In March, UPS launched a three-year plan to turn the business around. But so far, it hasn’t made meaningful progress toward its goals. The company has done a lot wrong in a short period — leading to a 45% drawdown from its all-time high. But there’s reason to believe the worst could be over.
In the second quarter, UPS returned to U.S. volume growth for the first time since Q4 2021. This is a positive near-term sign. The outlook for its healthcare-related business is a medium-term positive. UPS expects healthcare to contribute half of its growth over the next three years as it focuses on temperature and time-sensitive deliveries.
Over the longer term, UPS has an entrenched position in domestic and international shipping and logistics. The stock has sold off so far that its forward P/E ratio is now just 17 and its dividend yields 5.1%. UPS may appeal to investors looking for a value stock that can turn things around as well as an investment that can boost their passive income.
Chevron is an ultra-reliable dividend payer
Unlike Honeywell and UPS, Chevron hasn’t disappointed investors by falling short of expectations. But it does have a major question mark that may be holding its share price back.
On Oct. 23, 2023, Chevron announced an agreement to acquire oil and natural gas exploration and production company Hess for $53 billion. However, ExxonMobil has held up that deal, citing nuances in contractual language regarding the rights to a shared asset offshore from Guyana.
Meanwhile, crude oil prices have tumbled to their lowest levels of 2024 due to lower demand expectations and elevated production levels. Chevron hasn’t made the operational errors of Honeywell or UPS. Nevertheless, the uncertainty over the fate of its Hess deal and lower oil prices have pushed the stock to a 52-week low.
With a P/E ratio of just 13.9, its valuation looks dirt cheap, but that ratio could rise to a more expensive level if lower oil prices lead to lower profits. Overall, Chevron is reasonably valued and sports a streak of 37 consecutive years of dividend raises and a 4.6% dividend yield — making it yet another passive income powerhouse to consider now.
“Loading up” responsibly
Investors may look at Honeywell, UPS, or Chevron and be tempted to back up the truck in hopes that they will rebound. And while it could be a good idea to load up on all three stocks, it’s important to maintain diversification in a balanced portfolio.
Going too heavy into just a few stocks or correlated themes can leave a portfolio at risk of outsized declines if the market slumps. A better approach is to only allocate larger shares of your portfolio to your highest conviction ideas, and to build those positions gradually over time.
Rushing too quickly into a stock can lead to stress, bad decision-making, and depleted buying power. No one knows when the next major stock market sell-off will happen, but when it does, it will be wise to be comfortable with your positions.
The best way to set yourself up for that is to be aware of your asset allocations and ensure that no single position becomes so large that a bad stretch for one industry can derail your portfolio’s performance and hold you back from achieving your financial goals.
