The Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility ETF (SPHD) is designed to replicate the performance of the S&P 500 Low Volatility High Dividend Index. This fund allocates a minimum of 90% of its total capital to the common stocks featured within its benchmark index. Standard & Poor's is responsible for the creation, maintenance, and calculation of this index, which consists of 50 companies selected from the S&P 500 that have historically demonstrated both elevated dividend payouts and minimal price volatility. The holdings of the ETF and the constituent companies of the index are both revised and re-evaluated twice annually, in January and July.

Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility ETF targets conservative income investors but sacrifices total returns versus peers.

Despite a 4.27% estimated yield and low beta, SPHD underperforms SCHD, which offers similar volatility and higher returns.
