Hello
I was looking at Vanguard FTSE ETF and just realised that it gives between 4 and 5% dividend yield.
The FTSE 100 large cap has 4.3% yield, low P/E ratio (11) and decent return on equity (14.7%):

So I'm thinking to move my ££ into this ETF instead of leaving it in things like Growstreet, Loanpad or other similar short term loans at 4-5%.
Reason is... if the market were to tank, all stock, loan and property asset will tank as well. Default will rise and money will be stuck forever during recovery (like for Lendy)
What do you guys think? The only reason to put it in short term loan is to have the guarantee of liquidity & price staying the same. But it seems the risk may not worth it?
