Our read on FEUZ
DMost international factor funds sweep the whole developed world. FEUZ picks one bloc: the eurozone, run through First Trust's patented AlphaDEX screen, which ranks on growth and value and tiers the survivors instead of tracking market cap.
The fund seeks to track, before fees and expenses, the price and yield of the Nasdaq AlphaDEX® EurozoneTM Index. It uses an enhanced, rules-based AlphaDEX selection process applied to the Nasdaq EurozoneTM Index.
Why people hold it
- Eurozone only. No UK, no Switzerland, no Japan watering down the exposure, so it acts as a targeted slice rather than another all-of-developed-markets blend.ftportfolios.com
- AlphaDEX ranks the parent Nasdaq Eurozone index on growth and value factors, cuts the bottom 25% of scorers, then tiers the rest by quintile and rebalances quarterly.ftportfolios.com
- Stocks are equally weighted inside each quintile across roughly 150 names, so no single European mega-cap sets the tone the way it would in a cap-weighted benchmark.ftportfolios.com
- Live since 2014 with a decade-plus of real trading history, and it pays on a quarterly schedule.
Worth knowing
- The 0.80% expense ratio is a multiple of what top-ranked broad international multifactor peers like INTF (0.16%) and GSIE (0.25%) charge.
- Thinly traded next to headline international ETFs, so spreads can run wider and larger orders take more care to work.
- One currency bloc: euro moves pass straight into dollar returns, and quarterly reconstitution keeps turnover above a set-and-forget cap-weighted index.ftportfolios.com
