EEMD (AAM S&P Emerging Markets High Dividend Value ETF) is no longer actively trading.
This usually means the company was acquired and taken private, delisted from its exchange, or its ticker has been retired. Every price, valuation, dividend, and analyst figure on this page is frozen at the last available trading session and reads as historical reference — not a current-day signal.

This ETF tracks an underlying index that utilizes a systematic, equally-weighted methodology to select companies from the broader S&P Emerging Plus LargeMidCap Index. The selection criteria prioritize firms that demonstrate both attractive dividend yields and a track record of reliable distributions, while concurrently ensuring broad sector diversification. A core tenet of the fund's strategy is to invest a minimum of 80% of its net assets in equity securities that are economically linked to Emerging Markets nations and have successfully paid a positive annual dividend in the prior year.
Global dividends hit a record high in 2024, with $606.1 billion paid in Q2 alone, as tech giants like Meta and Alibaba entered the dividend-paying market. Equity yields remain low compared to bonds, with the FTSE All-World index yielding 1.86% in September 2024, while the FTSE World Government Bond index yield to maturity stood at 3.03%. Dividend-focused strategies can enhance income potential in equity portfolios by prioritising high-dividend-paying sectors and reducing risks of dividend cuts.
Dividend stocks, including REITs and utilities, have underperformed in recent years. Rising interest rates and increasing costs of capital have contributed to the underperformance. The beginnings of a strong dividend stock rally may have just begun on the back of some very good news.
Investing in dividend-paying stocks has proved to be a helpful strategy, outperforming global markets over the long term. Dividend income strategies play an important role for multi-asset income portfolios. But they can also run the risk of being too narrowly focused, which can limit both income potential and upside participation when equity markets rise.
Past experience shows us that emerging markets have historically reacted positively to higher global rates, especially if the latter reflects an improving global growth outlook. Most emerging markets will start normalizing rates well before the U.S. and developed markets.
Today, China's economic recovery continues ticking along, and we are even seeing some indicators showing growth relative to last year.
