SPDR SERIES TRUST SPDR GLOBAL DOW ETF

The SPDR® Global Dow ETF seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of the Global Dow Index.

The 150 companies are selected not just based on size and reputation, but also on their promise of future growth. The Index has been designed to cover both developed and emerging countries. The Index is equal weighted and will be reset to equal weights annually each September.
