Thoughts on Global X SuperDividend ETF?

[Jerry1911]

What are your thoughts on this one? SDIV is the ticker.

Would it be a good alternative to the MSCI World High Dividend Yield Index fund?

What good is 15% dividend when the ETF is down 65%... If you bought this in 2018 you are still deep in the red even considering all the dividends you received.
It's very exposed (35%) to real estate, which is very sensitive to interest rate changes, and explains the sharp fall this year.

Overall- Dividend stocks are for boomers, if you absolutely need to live off that money then buy dividend stocks. Otherwise, a global diversified ETF will always beat a dividend ETF in the long run.
