About FXD valuation

Adding up its 107 holdings with company data, FXD trades at 13.7 times trailing earnings and 12.2 times analysts' forward estimates, with a price-to-book ratio of 2.39 and a dividend yield of 1.23%. Its earnings yield of 7.29% is 1.96 points above the 5.33% yield to maturity of the U.S. bond market (AGG).

The ten largest holdings are 15.9% of the fund and earn 31.0% of its combined profit. By sector, Industrials is the most expensive at 27.2 times earnings and Technology the cheapest at 4.7. Companies that lost money over the past year are 2.7% of the covered weight.

How these figures are calculated. Each ratio treats the fund as one company: the earnings, sales and book value of every holding are added up in proportion to its weight and divided into the fund's price. In practice that is a weighted harmonic mean, so a single stock with a very high P/E cannot distort the result, and loss-making companies reduce the fund's earnings instead of being dropped. Covers 98.8% of the fund's weight (U.S.-listed stocks with company data); company figures as of October 26, 2026.
