Dividend ETFs and Bond ETFs

Here is a raw list of dividend ETFs (link)

Here is a list of all ETFs sorted by annual expense ratio (link)

Sorting through the data on the two lists and the following seem the most interesting to me:
DVY, PIP, SDY, VIG, VWY

For another opinion with more of a focus on current yield, I found this Gary Gordon article.Gordon's top three are: DEM, DWX, DVY

For Bond ETFs my short list includes:
TLT because it has options
BND Vanguard bond index with low expenses
SHY low volatility.

As always for the average person (vs. the gunslinging trader), dollar cost averaging into age appropriate investments is often the best road.

Position: long IWM hedged
