FTA

First Trust Large Cap Value AlphaDEX Fund (based onthe Defined Large Cap Value Index

FTA Description

The investment seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the fund's fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Defined Large Cap Value Index. The fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets in common stocks that comprise the index. The index is a modified equal-dollar weighted index designed by S&P to objectively identify and select stocks from the S&P 500(R) Value Index that may generate positive alpha relative to traditional passive-style indices through the use of the AlphaDEX(R) selection methodology. It is non-diversified.

FFSM

Fidelity Fundamental Small-Mid Cap ETF

FFSM Description

FFSM discloses holdings only on a monthly basis with a 30-day lag. The fund actively selects global mid- and small-cap companies with both growth and value factors. The portfolio is selected using fundamental and quantitative analysis, considering factors such as issuer's financial health and industry position, as well as the overall economic condition. The fund has a Tracking Basket Structure in place, which acts as a proxy portfolio that includes some of the funds holdings from recent disclosure, significant portion of the funds holdings, and cash. This is designed to track the funds daily performance, facilitate arbitrage opportunities and help mitigate the risk of front-running. However, investors should note that its non-transparent structure could result in wider spreads. Before February 26, 2024, the fund traded as Fidelity Small-Mid Cap Opportunities ETF under the ticker FSMO.
