FTC: AlphaDEX Strategy Does Not Work For Large-Cap Growth ETFs

FTC tracks a well-diversified basket of 187 large-cap securities selected for their strong growth characteristics and weak value features. Its Index reconstitutes quarterly, and FTC's ER is 0.58%. Its AlphaDEX methodology aims to enhance returns by adding secondary screens covering momentum and short-term sales growth, but the approach also filters out high-quality stocks. The result is one of the lowest-quality large-cap growth ETFs on the market. FTC's selections are also highly levered, with an average interest coverage ratio 9x lower than its peers.
