Index ETFs track broad market indeics. While markets are growing, so should ETFs. If these ETFs keep fixed dividend yield, they should pay growing dividends when ETFs' prices are growing.
Lets take a look at the historical data of various ETFs.
IVV, S&P 500 Tracking ETF
VTI, Total US Stock Market ETF
VEU, Total US Stock Market ETF
VT, Total World Stock Market ETF
Conclusion
US market ETFs give growing dividends according to past data while the world or
non-US markets do not. VEU's returns are not as good over the years and that
is probably why it does not pay growing dividends.
