DMDV Description
The AAM S&P Developed Markets High Dividend Value ETF (NYSE:DMDV) is designed to provide current cash flow and adequate capital growth by targeting attractively valued developed international mid and large capitalization stocks that exhibit both a high dividend yield and sustainable dividend distribution characteristics. At the core of DMDV’s low cost, tax-efficient, transparent approach are two key valuation indicators that aim to identify sustainable dividendpaying stocks offering fundamental value.
Dividend yield – A high dividend yield may indicate an attractive market price and signal a company’s willingness to return capital to its shareholders, which may help meet the cash flow needs of investors.
Free cash flow yield – A high free cash flow means a healthy operating condition and strong balance sheet which may help DMDV avoid value traps among high dividend stocks.
The DMDV Advantage
Cash Flow: DMDV targets 55 dividend-paying stocks in the S&P Developed BMI Ex-U.S. & Korea LargeMidCap Index, potentially increasing a portfolio’s income and helping investors meet their cash flow needs.
Capital Growth: Dividends have played a significant role in equity returns. In fact, nearly 48% of the S&P Developed BMI Ex-U.S. & Korea LargeMidCap Index total return can be attributed to the reinvested dividend and the power of compounding.*
Sector and Stock Diversification: DMDV’s distinct index methodology targets five stocks from each Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) sector potentially providing investors a full range of sustainable dividend opportunities.
