FXR uses a quant-based model to select industrial stocks it believes will outperform the broad industrials sector. The funds tiered equal-weighting scheme tilts the fund toward mid-cap companies. Aside from considerably less exposure to some of the segment giants, FXR also has pronounced sector bets. Overall, the fund offers a smart beta approach to the US industrials space, instead of providing market-like exposure. The index is reconstituted and rebalanced on a quarterly basis.
