FXO vs. LVOL ETF Comparison

Comparison of First Trust Financials AlphaDEX (FXO) to American Century Low Volatility ETF (LVOL)

FXO

First Trust Financials AlphaDEX

FXO 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 StrataQuant(R) Financials 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 NYSE Euronext to objectively identify and select stocks from the Russell 1000(R) Index in the financial services sector that may generate positive alpha relative to traditional passive-style indices through the use of the AlphaDEX(R) selection methodology. It is non-diversified.

The investment seeks capital appreciation. The fund generally invests in common stocks of U.S. companies that have a market capitalization greater than $2 billion. It seeks to deliver a lower realized portfolio volatility than its benchmark, the S&P 500® Index, by utilizing a stock selection process that expands on traditional measures of price volatility by including measures of asymmetric volatility and seeking securities of businesses that demonstrate consistent cash-flows, stable operations, and strong balance sheets. The fund is an actively managed ETF that does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index.
