Hey kids! Imagine you have two piggy banks. One (SCHD) gets small, steady amounts of money (dividends) regularly, even when things are tough. The other (MAGS) aims for big gains, but the money can disappear quickly if things go wrong.
Recently, the piggy bank with steady money did better! This is because some grown-ups are worried about money problems. They're choosing safer investments.
This shows how different ways of investing react to the economy.
- SCHD is like a steady, reliable piggy bank.
- MAGS is like a piggy bank that can grow fast, but also lose money quickly.
- Many investors are moving to safer options because of economic concerns.
