The First Trust Growth Strength ETF (FTGS) is a passively managed fund that tracks an index of U.S. equities, including both common stocks and real estate investment trusts (REITs). Under normal market conditions, the fund commits at least 80% of its net assets to securities within its underlying index. The index employs a rules-based methodology that screens domestic equities for liquidity alongside fundamental quality and growth factors, specifically return on equity, long-term debt levels, revenue growth, and cash flow growth. Launched in October 2022, the ETF offers investors exposure to large-cap U.S. companies that meet these combined financial criteria, with a market capitalization of approximately $1.25 billion placing it in the small-cap category despite its large-blend investment focus.
REITs are companies that own, operate, or finance income-generating real estate across sectors such as residential, commercial, industrial, and healthcare properties, and they are typically required to distribute a significant portion of their taxable income as dividends to shareholders. Including REITs in a broad equity index allows the fund to capture real estate exposure alongside traditional corporate stocks, providing a more diversified representation of the U.S. economy.
