Fund Description
The Fund employs a “passive management” – or indexing – investment approach designed to track the performance of the Index. The Fund generally uses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of the securities in the Index whose risk, return and other characteristics resemble the risk, return and other characteristics of the Index as a whole. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s total assets (exclusive of collateral held from securities lending) will be invested in component securities of the Index and investments that have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to the economic characteristics of such component securities.
The Index is a fundamentally weighted index that consists of dividend-paying U.S. common stocks with growth characteristics. The Index is comprised of the 300 companies in the WisdomTree U.S. Dividend Index, which defines the dividend-paying universe of companies in the U.S. stock market, with the best combined rank of growth and quality factors, specifically: medium-term earnings growth expectations, return on equity, and return on assets. To be eligible for inclusion in the Index, a company must meet the following criteria as of the annual Index screening date: (i) payment of regular cash dividends on shares of common stock during the preceding 12 months; (ii) market capitalization of at least $2 billion; (iii) median daily dollar trading volume of at least $100,000 for the preceding three months; and (iv) an earnings yield greater than the dividend yield.
The Index is dividend weighted annually to reflect the proportionate share of the aggregate cash dividends each component company is projected to pay in the coming year, based on the most recently declared dividend per share, a measure of fundamental value. Generally, companies projected to pay more dividends are more heavily weighted.
On the Index’s annual screening date, the maximum weight of any security in the Index is capped at 7% and the Index caps the weight of components exposed to a single sector (except for the information technology and real estate sectors) at 20%. The weight of components exposed to each of the information technology and real estate sectors is capped at 25% and 10%, respectively. The Index also may adjust the weight of individual components on the annual screening date based on certain quantitative thresholds or limits tied to key metrics of a component security, such as its market capitalization and trading volume. To the extent the Index reduces an individual component’s weight, the excess weight will be reallocated pro rata among the other components. Similarly, if the Index increases a component’s weight, the weight of the other components will be reduced on a pro rata basis to contribute the weight needed for such increase. The weight of a sector or individual component in the Index may fluctuate above or below specified caps and thresholds, respectively, between screening dates in response to market conditions.
WisdomTree, Inc. (“WisdomTree”), as Index provider, currently uses the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS®), a widely recognized industry classification methodology developed by MSCI, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC, to define companies within a given sector. The following sectors are included in the Index: communication services, consumer discretionary, consumer staples, energy, financials, health care, industrials, information technology, materials, real estate, and utilities. A sector is comprised of multiple industries. For example, the energy sector is comprised of companies in the energy equipment and services industry as well as the oil, gas and consumable fuels industry. As of June 30, 2023, companies in the information technology and consumer staples sectors comprised a significant portion (i.e., in excess of 15% of the Index’s total weighting) of the Index; however, the Index’s sector exposure may change from time to time.
To the extent the Index concentrates (i.e., holds 25% or more of its total assets) in the securities of a particular industry or group of industries, the Fund will concentrate its investments to approximately the same extent as the Index.
