Mid cap equities can give investors exposure to a capitalization category that provides the stability of large caps and the growth potential of small caps. One fund that further segments the mid cap arena via their dividend-paying prowess is the WisdomTree U.S. MidCap Dividend Fund (DON).
DON seeks to track the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the WisdomTree U.S. MidCap Dividend Index. Under normal circumstances, at least 95% of the fund’s total assets (exclusive of collateral held from securities lending) will be invested in component securities of the index and investments that have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to the economic characteristics of such component securities.
The index is a fundamentally weighted index that is comprised of the mid-capitalization segment of the U.S. dividend-paying market. The fund is up over 90% within the last 12 months.
DON can help investors:
- Gain exposure to core U.S. mid cap equity from a broad range of dividend paying companies
- Complement or replace mid cap value or dividend oriented active and passive strategies
- Satisfy demand for growth potential and income focus
