SPDR SERIES TRUST S&P 1500 MOMENTUM TILT ETF

The SPDR® S&P® 1500 Momentum Tilt ETF seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of the S&P® 1500 Positive Momentum Tilt Index. The S&P 1500 Positive Momentum Tilt Index applies an alternative weighting methodology to the S&P Composite 1500 Index so that stocks with relatively high momentum are overweight relative to the S&P 1500 Index and stocks with relatively low momentum are underweight. The S&P Composite 1500 Index, one of the leading indices of the U.S. equity market, is a capitalization weighted combination of the large-cap S&P 500 Index, the S&P MidCap 400 Index, and the S&P Small Cap 600 Index. A "momentum" style of investing emphasizes investing in securities that have had higher recent price performance compared to other securities.
