XLY: Don't Expect Consumer Spending To Notably Recover Until 2026 — Neutral
XLY Seeking Alpha — August 21, 2025XLY has underperformed the S&P 500 in 2025 due to economic uncertainty, high concentration in Amazon and Tesla, and sector-specific headwinds. While Amazon could rebound and McDonald's is relatively resilient, laggards like Starbucks, Nike, and Home Depot weigh on XLY's outlook. XLY's high volatility, concentrated top holdings, and lower tech exposure make it riskier than VOO, which is more diversified and tech-heavy.
The Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF offers stable, growing dividends and tends to have lower risk than broader market indices, though recent performance has lagged growth-focused funds with zombie-like movement.

SCHD's weakness and strength is its defensive, value-oriented holdings and is not the place for those thirsty for high growth or yield chasing.
