This index reflects the development of 162 North American stocks with high dividend yield and is therefore relatively well diversified. The ETF replicates its index using full physical replication, so it contains all the securities of its reference index. The ETF's earnings (dividends) are automatically reinvested (accumulated). The fund company Xtrackers claims a total expense ratio (TER) of 0.39% per year. The yearly average divergence from the index performance (Tracking Difference) since 2015 was -0.09% per year. Therefore, the ETF was less expensive than the TER suggests and even exceeded the index performance.
