First Trust Dow Jones Select MicroCap Index Fund is an open-end management investment company. Co. seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield of an equity index called the Dow Jones Select MicroCap Indexsm (the Index). The Index measures the performance of selected U.S. micro-capitalization companies chosen from all common stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex and The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. that are comparatively liquid and have fundamentals relative to the micro-capitalization segment as a whole. As of Dec 31 2014, the Fund's total assets were $51.7 million. The FDM stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the FDM stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2017 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 FDM annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
