Description: FDD First Trust STOXX European October 23, 2025

The First Trust STOXX® European Select Dividend Index Fund (NYSE ARCA: FDD) is an ETF that allocates at least 90 % of its net assets-including any investment borrowings-to the constituents of its benchmark index. The index tracks 30 European equities drawn from the STOXX Europe 600 that meet two strict dividend criteria: a non-negative five-year dividend-per-share growth rate and a dividend-to-earnings ratio capped at 60 %.

Key quantitative attributes (as of the most recent filing) include an expense ratio of roughly 0.45 %, a weighted average dividend yield near 5.2 %, and a concentration of holdings in the utilities, consumer staples, and financial sectors, which together represent about 55 % of the portfolio. The fund’s performance is sensitive to Euro-USD exchange movements and to the broader European monetary policy stance, particularly the European Central Bank’s interest-rate trajectory.

Given the fund’s focus on high-yield, dividend-growth stocks, its risk profile aligns with investors seeking income plus modest capital appreciation, but it may underperform in a rising-rate environment where dividend-paying sectors tend to lag growth-oriented segments.
