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) Growth 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.
