Investment firm Crumly & Associates’ decision to trim its stake in the First Trust NASDAQ Technology Dividend Index Fund (TDIV) during the first quarter could be for a number of reasons. The ETF was well above its 52-week low of $62.54 reached last April, which could have enticed Crumly to dispose of some shares.
It’s worth noting Crumly continued to hold over 100,000 shares after the sale, indicating it still saw value in keeping the ETF. After all, TDIV is a provider of passive income, offering a solid dividend yield of about 1.4% as of April 2.
