DTD aims for large dividend players in the broad US total equity market. The fund delivers its portfolio by selecting and weighting companies based on dollar amount of dividends to be paid over the next 12 months. Along the way, the fund makes sector bets such as overweighting consumer non-cyclicals and underweighting technology. These biases help produce a higher-yielding portfolio for dividend-hungry investors, and make for a less risky fund overall. The index is reconstituted and rebalanced on an annual basis.
