Principal Investment Strategy
The Sponsor, with the assistance of Guggenheim Partners Investment Management, LLC ("GPIM"), an affiliate of Guggenheim Partners, LLC, has selected the securities to be included in the Trust’s portfolio. The Sponsor and GPIM believe that companies that distribute significant dividends on a consistent basis generally demonstrate strong financial strength and positive performance relative to their peers. See “Investment Policies” in Part B of the prospectus for more information.

Selection CriteriaThe Trust’s portfolio is constructed and the securities were selected seven business days prior to the initial date of deposit (the “Security Selection Date”) using the Security Selection Rules outlined below. Security Selection Rules: In constructing the Trust’s portfolio, 25 securities were selected based on the following fundamentally based quantitative criteria: 1. Initial Universe: Start with an initial universe of securities which meet the following criteria as of the Security Selection Date:
2. Rank on Fundamentals: Rank every company identified in the initial universe against other companies in the same sector, as defined by Global Industry Classification Standard, along each of the following reported financial metrics. Each ranking is determined as of the Security Selection Date using the most recently reported information and uses a scale of 1 through 10 (1 representing the highest scoring 10% in the sector and 10 representing the lowest scoring 10% in the sector):
3. Define Sub-Universe: Reduce the initial universe of securities to a sub-universe that meets the following requirements, with each requirement being applied independently to the initial universe from the other requirements in this step, as of the Security Selection Date:
4. Selection: Select from the sub-universe the twenty-five top dividend yielding securities (with higher rank given to larger market capitalization when yields are equal), equally weighted as of the Security Selection Date, which adhere to following portfolio limits as of the Security Selection Date:
Please note that due to the fluctuating nature of security prices, the weighting of an individual security or sector in the Trust portfolio may change after the Security Selection Date. The S&P Composite 1500 Index combines three leading indices - S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400 and S&P SmallCap 600 - to form an investable benchmark of the U.S. equity market. Covering approximately 85% of the U.S. market capitalization, S&P Composite 1500 offers investors an index with the familiar characteristics of the S&P 500 but with broader market exposure. The S&P 1000 Index measures the performance of widely available and highly liquid stocks. This makes the S&P 1000 the appropriate mid-small cap index for investors seeking to replicate the performance of the U.S. equity market or serve as a benchmark for a universe of tradable stocks. Indexes are unmanaged and it is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
