FAB vs. PFF ETF Comparison

Comparison of First Trust Multi Cap Value AlphaDEX Fund (FAB) to iShares US Preferred Stock ETF (PFF)
FAB

First Trust Multi Cap Value AlphaDEX Fund

FAB Description

The investment seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the fund's fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Defined Multi Cap Value Index. The fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets in common stocks that comprise the index. The index is a modified equal-dollar weighted index designed by S&P to objectively identify and select stocks from the S&P Composite 1500(R) Value 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.
