Generating income whilst trying to minimize volatility in these uncertain times

In these uncertain and volatile times, I recently researched (and bought!) the SCHD ETF. With a low expense ratio of 0.06%, and a focus on dividend stocks such as Finance, Consumer Non-Durables stocks, I thought it’d be a nice buffer in my portfolio which is highly focused on growth. After I purchased the shares I sold some covered calls to generate income from owning the ETF.

There are other ETF’s with the same focus such as SPYV, RPV.
