What is FCTR?

The First Trust Lunt U.S. Factor Rotation ETF (the "Fund"), seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Funds fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Lunt Capital Large Cap Factor Rotation Index (the "Index"). The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets (including investment borrowings) in common stocks that comprise the Index. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Index. The Lunt Capital Large Cap Factor Rotation Index is designed to provide exposure to U.S. large-cap equities, rotating among four select factors (momentum, value, volatility and quality) when they come into favor using the proprietary Lunt Factor Allocation Methodology.
