Description: FDD STOXX European Select

The First Trust STOXX® European Select Dividend Index Fund (FDD) is an exchange-traded fund that tracks a concentrated index of 30 high-yielding stocks selected from the STOXX Europe 600. The fund maintains a strict mandate to invest at least 90% of its net assets in the common stocks and depositary receipts represented within this benchmark.

To qualify for inclusion, companies must demonstrate financial stability through a non-negative five-year dividend growth rate and a dividend payout ratio capped at 60%. This methodology targets mature European firms that balance shareholder distributions with retained earnings, a model common in the financial, utility, and industrial sectors of developed European markets.

For a deeper look into the specific valuation metrics of these European holdings, consider exploring the data available on ValueRay.

Headlines to Watch Out For

  • Strict dividend-to-earnings ratio screens limit exposure to distressed high-yield companies
  • Currency fluctuations between the Euro and US Dollar affect net asset value
  • Performance of the financial and utility sectors dictates overall index price momentum
