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.

ITAN

Sparkline Intangible Value ETF

ITAN Description

The investment seeks long-term capital appreciation. The fund is an actively-managed exchange-traded fund (âETFâ). The fund will invest in U.S.-listed equity securities that Sparkline Capital LP (the âSub-Adviserâ) believes are attractive relative to its proprietary measure of âintangible-augmented intrinsic value.â The fundâs investments may include common stocks and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). Although the fund will not concentrate its investments in a particular industry, the Sub-Adviser anticipates that fund will hold a meaningful amount of stocks in the technology, communications, healthcare, and consumer discretionary sectors.
