Our read on TGLR

ETF.net Research

In short

DNamed for Nancy Tengler's 2003 book, TGLR runs her Relative Dividend Yield playbook: 25 to 35 US large caps bought when their own yield history flags them as cheap, held with low turnover, for 0.85%.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks income and long-term capital appreciation.

Why people hold it

  • Relative Dividend Yield and Relative Price-to-Sales flag the entry point; a 12-factor fundamental check, half qualitative, then weeds out stocks that are cheap for a reason.sec.gov
  • A 25 to 35 stock portfolio, so individual picks actually move the needle, paired with a stated aim of above-market dividend yield and low turnover.sec.gov
  • Portfolio manager Nancy Tengler, CEO and CIO of Laffer Tengler Investments, kept the reins when the fund reorganized into the Wedbush Series Trust in April 2026.sec.gov

Worth knowing

  • At 0.85% it costs more than the typical fund in its dividend-income category, and more than peers like VUS at 0.25% and CGDV at 0.33%.
  • A small, thinly traded fund, which tends to mean wider bid-ask spreads than on the category's giants.
  • Income has arrived on an irregular schedule rather than a fixed monthly or quarterly cadence.
