The dividend income of index funds is very similar to the interest earned by bonds. Just short-term buying, in fact, the dividend income is very small. If you want to get dividend income for a long time, you need to hold it for a long time. The longer you hold it, the higher the dividend income you can get.
Several points of fund dividend: 1. We don't have to pay taxes when we receive dividends from the fund. 2. OTC funds have two ways: "dividend reinvestment" and "cash dividend". If the OTC index fund is still in a region worthy of investment, the dividend distribution method should be set to "dividend reinvestment"; There is only "cash dividend" in the on-site fund, and the cash will be directly transferred to the account and then bought by yourself. The specific setting method can be found on your own investment platform. 3. The advantage of "dividend reinvestment" is that this part of subscription does not need to pay "subscription fee". If you invest after receiving the cash bonus, you need to pay the subscription fee.
