Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF Sees Strong Inflows

Schwab US Dividend Equity ETF ( $SCHD ) has risen by 0.32% in the past week. It has experienced a 5-day net inflow of $446.42 million.
This is due, in part, to market sentiment on some of the ETF’s largest holdings. For example:

• Texas Instruments has seen a wave of insider selling in early May, with the CEO and several senior executives unloading tens of thousands of shares worth over $19 million combined, even as the stock posts a strong year-to-date gain above 63%. Despite profit‑taking and concerns over valuation, analysts and AI-driven models keep an Outperform/Buy stance, citing better‑than‑expected Q1 results, stronger margins, and robust demand from industrial and data center customers.
• Qualcomm shares have rocketed over the past month, far outpacing the broader chip sector, yet the analyst consensus still sits at Hold as many see the stock ahead of published price targets. A few high‑profile analysts have turned more bullish, arguing that Qualcomm’s expanding AI, automotive, IoT and upcoming Arm-based data center CPU businesses could justify a higher valuation, even as handset weakness and a shrinking Apple contribution remain key risks.
• Unitedhealth Group Inc. drew fresh analyst attention, with Erste Group’s Hans Engel reaffirming a Buy rating and contributing to a Moderate Buy consensus across Wall Street. The stock is viewed as offering modest upside from current levels, with recent upgrades emphasizing the company’s defensive profile, steady earnings power, and continued appeal for investors seeking stability within the broader healthcare sector.
