Dividend Select

A lower volatility portfolio that involves two levels of stock selection. We first create a universe of S&P 500® stocks with less return variability; and then select stocks from this universe using our TWIN Equity Model™ and Fundamental Tilt®. The goal is to outperform the S&P 500® over the long-term with significantly less risk (standard deviation) than the index itself.
