Description: DES U.S. SmallCap Dividend Fund January 16, 2026
WisdomTree U.S. SmallCap Dividend Fund (DES) commits at least 95% of its net assets-excluding securities-lending collateral-to securities that either belong to its underlying fundamentally weighted index or closely mimic those securities’ economic characteristics. The index tracks the performance of U.S. small-cap companies that pay dividends, and the ETF is classified as a “Small Value” vehicle. Because the fund is non-diversified, it may hold a relatively concentrated portfolio of dividend-paying small-caps.
Key data points (as of the most recent filing) include an expense ratio of roughly 0.45%, total assets under management near $1.2 billion, and a weighted-average dividend yield around 3.2%. The top sector exposures are typically financials, industrials, and consumer discretionary, which are sensitive to U.S. economic growth and interest-rate dynamics. Small-cap dividend yields tend to outperform in a low-rate environment but can be pressured if rates rise sharply, increasing the cost of capital for these firms.
