XLU ETF holds shares in 31 companies, as well as some treasuries, bonds, cash etc.

XLU Price vs. Yearly Payout, Since Nov 2016
Month by month: the share price (left scale) next to what one share pays in a year at the payout rate in effect that month (right scale). Over this stretch, the price rose 89% and the yearly payout rose 37%. When the payout climbs faster than the price, the yield goes up.

The red line on the XLU dividend graph represents the Dividend Yield on the day the dividend was paid - that payment annualized at the payout frequency in effect on its own date (payment x payments-per-year), divided by the XLU share price on the dividend-payment date.

As you can see XLU Dividend yield has historically gone UP, compared to many other popular ETFs, such as VOO/SPY, etc - this means that XLU dividend CAGR is historically higher than its share price CAGR.

And that is a GOOD THING, since your dividend grow faster than the share price. So each time you 'DRIP', you get more bang for your buck!
