FIRST TRUST MID CAP GROWTH ALPHADEX FUND • 2026
FIRST TRUST MID CAP GROWTH ALPHADEX FUND positions itself as a vehicle for targeted exposure to U.S. mid-cap growth stocks, using a quantitative approach designed to capture names likely to outperform the market. Its differentiation lies in the AlphaDEX methodology, which combines stock selection rules and factor discipline to seek more consistent alpha than a purely discretionary approach.
- Exposure to a segment historically positioned between small and large caps as a favorable growth area
- AlphaDEX quantitative methodology aimed at a more disciplined selection of growth stocks
- Solid performance momentum across several time horizons, reflecting robust execution of the growth style
- High sensitivity to market rotations that are unfavorable to growth stocks
- Concentrated exposure to U.S. mid caps, making it more cyclical and more volatile than a broad diversified index
Momentum is clearly favorable and suggests a well-established upward trend, with a consistent performance profile across recent and medium-term horizons. Strategically, this strengthens the case for the fund for an investor seeking to capture the dynamics of mid-cap growth, while accepting potentially higher volatility if the market once again favors more defensive or large-cap stocks.
