Yield Tilt Index Fund | Funds

An alternative to a pure index fund, a yield tilt fund diversifies its holdings among a universe of stocks that is "tilted" in the direction of higher yield, such as the high-yield stocks that comprise the S&P 500. Yield tilt funds are based on the assertion that, since dividend income is taxed at higher rates, the market must compensate for this taxation by providing higher returns for the high-yield segment of the market. If this assertion is true, tax-exempt investors could benefit from this market inefficiency by investing in high-yield stock
