## Resource

Lucas and Luna explore why dividend investors should look beyond U.S. borders in June 2026. With the S&P 500 at 7,554 and the Dow at 51,671, U.S. stocks offer rich valuations but slim yields. Lucas points to the Vanguard International Dividend Appreciation ETF (VIGI) and the iShares International Select Dividend ETF (IDV), which yield 3.5% and 5.2% respectively. They discuss how European and Asian dividend payers like Nestlé and Toyota offer stable cash flows and growth. Luna challenges the currency risk, and Lucas explains how hedging ETFs mitigate that. The episode drills into one concrete case: how Unilever's 3.8% dividend yield and 4% annual growth outpace many U.S. peers. They also touch on the SpaceX IPO's impact on portfolio allocation, but keep focus on international diversification as a yield-boosting strategy in a 4.48% 10-year Treasury world. #DividendInvesting #InternationalStocks #VIGI #IDV #ETF #Unilever #Nestle #Toyota #CurrencyRisk #Yield #PortfolioDiversification #Finance #Investing #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #DividendGrowth #GlobalMarkets #IncomeInvesting Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
