BetaShares says the BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF (ASX: DHHF) is designed to be a "complete all-in-one stock market solution".

It provides exposure to approximately 8,000 shares, incorporating large-caps, mid-caps and small-caps on more than 60 exchanges.

Instead of following a specific index, the DHHF ETF invests in a selection of other exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

The DHHF is invested in the ASX and overseas developed and emerging markets.

About 37% of the ETF's portfolio is ASX shares and about 40% is US shares. The rest is other international shares.

The ASX ETF pays distributions, or dividends, quarterly.

In an unusual feature, the distribution reinvestment plan (DRP) applies automatically for Australian investors unless they opt out.

The management fee is 0.19% per annum, which BetaShares says is the lowest fee for an all-in-one diversified growth ASX ETF.

So, say you took BetaShares' advice and bought this ASX ETF a year ago to create your entire share portfolio in a single trade.

What is your investment worth now?

The BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF closed at $36.66 on Friday, up 0.03%.

On 23 May last year, the DHHF closed at $33.42 apiece.

If you had put $10,000 into the DHHF ETF on 23 May last year, it would have bought you 299 units (for $9,992.58).

There's been a capital gain of $3.24 per unit since then, which equates to $968.76 worth of capital growth.

Thus your portfolio of BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF units is now worth $10,961.34.

In terms of dividends (or distributions, as they are called with ETFs), the DHHF has paid four lots since 23 May 2024.

The DHHF ETF paid investors 26.3091 cents per unit on 16 July last year. The ETF then paid 13.7612 cents per unit on 16 October.

DHHF investors also received 29.0175 cents per unit on 17 January this year and 11.7284 AU cents per unit on 16 April.

Altogether, that is 80.8162 cents per unit. That totals $241.64 in annual income from your 299 DHHF ETF units.

Total returns for the DHHF ETF…

Your capital gain of $968.76 plus your distributions of $241.64 gives you a total return in dollar terms of $1,210.40.

Now remember, you invested $9,992.58 purchasing your 299 units of DHHF ETF units on 23 May.

This means you have received a total return, in percentage terms, of 12.11%.

Since inception on 15 December 2020, the BetaShares Diversified All Growth ETF has delivered an average annual return of 10.49%.
