This page displays all 20 high yield ETFs with their five-factor safety scores. Each ETF is scored on fund size, volatility, cost, yield stability and return history — allowing you to compare income potential against fund stability at a glance.

Safety score is a mathematical metric based on publicly available data and may not account for all outstanding factors. Always do your own research.

Safety + Yield together: A 14% yield from a $100M fund with a 2-year history is very different from 7% from a $36B fund with a decade of track record.

Consistency: If current yield is far above the 5-year average, that may signal price collapse rather than dividend growth.

Low cost matters: A high yield ETF charging 1%+ expense ratio gives away a significant portion of its income advantage each year.
