Higher dividends demonstrate a commitment to distributing profits to shareholders as well as business optimism on the part of management. To be included in the portfolio’s selection universe a stock must be U.S.-based and have a market capitalization of at least $10B. Holdings are selected and weighted using a multi-factor risk model and optimizer software to achieve a balance between high scores on Timeliness, high dividend yields, and portfolio risk taken relative to a large cap value index. The portfolio is generally rebalanced monthly and targets between 50 and 70 holdings in total.
