SPDR S&P Emerging Markets Dividend is an open-end investment management company. The SPDR S&P Emerging Markets Dividend ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of an index that tracks dividend-paying securities of publicly traded companies in emerging markets. In seeking this objective, the Fund uses a sampling strategy. As of Sep 30 2015, the Fund's total assets and investment portfolio totaled $321,543,576 and $313,607,714, respectively. The EDIV stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the EDIV stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2016 for the given stock.
When performing this calculation it is important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annual return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon.
One way to factor dividends into the return is simply to count them as cash — we don't do
that here. Instead, our website aims to empower investors
by performing the EDIV annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
