🟢 What Is QG&I?
Quant Growth & Income (QG&I) is a rules-based stock portfolio for long-term investors from Seeking Alpha’s quant team, built for long-term capital appreciation, consistent dividend income, and lower exposure to dividend cuts. Note: It aims to beat the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM) on total return while keeping a dividend yield close to VYM’s.
🟢 How Stocks Are Selected
The portfolio holds up to 30 dividend payers, including U.S. stocks, ADRs, REITs, and small caps. Each pick needs a sustained Strong Buy or Buy Quant Rating plus qualifying Dividend Safety, Growth, and Yield grades.
Note: A stock is removed if its Quant Rating falls to Sell or its Dividend Safety grade drops to D or lower.
