Description: FGD Dow Jones Global Select

The First Trust Dow Jones Global Select Dividend Index Fund (FGD) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of the Dow Jones Global Select Dividend Index. The fund invests at least 90% of its net assets in the common stocks and depositary receipts that make up the underlying index.

The underlying index is a dividend-yield-weighted benchmark composed of 100 stocks drawn from the developed-market segment of the Dow Jones World Index. Because the index weights holdings by indicated annual dividend yield rather than market capitalization, higher-yielding securities have a proportionally larger influence on performance, making the fund a vehicle for income-focused investors seeking exposure to dividend-paying equities across developed international markets.

Headlines to Watch Out For
  • Rising Treasury yields pressure global dividend stock valuations
  • USD strength erodes returns on international developed market holdings
  • Annual index reconstitution reshapes developed market dividend exposure
