House verdict
Quality compounder. The House's anchor. Screened for cash flow and raise history before yield, so the payout is a byproduct of profitable companies — not the product itself.
✓Coverage check:Holdings are screened on return on equity and cash-flow-to-debt; the distribution is funded by earnings, not leverage.
✓Yield check:3.41% sits in the income-plus-growth band — real income that still compounds.
SCHD in the House
Room: Consumer Reliability — one of the House's own holdings, held at a 19% target weight. Target 19% — the House's biggest room. Broad, quality-screened dividend payers: the reliable base the income is built on.
Every card is graded the same way and re-checked against the company's own filings. The Weekly House Score reports whatever crosses a House threshold; the House Tracker is the spreadsheet the framework itself runs on.
