3) SPDR S&P US Dividend Aristocrats

This ETF has a low exposure to technology, with only 2.5% exposure to the sector overall.

Smith recommends it for its exposure to companies that have increased their dividend year on year.

He said: “This ETF tracks members of the S&P Composite 1500 Index that have increased their dividend for at least 20 years, meaning it is investing in established businesses rather than those with the highest yield.  

“It therefore has a huge underweight to technology, with only a 2.5% position. It has a Total Expense Ratio of 0.35%.”
