Alps ETF Trust - Sector Dividend Dogs ETF is an open-end investment management company. The Fund seeks investment results that replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the performance of the S-Network Sector Dividend Dogs Index (the "Underlying Index"). The fund generally will invest in all of the securities that comprise the Index in proportion to their weightings in the Index. As of Nov 30 2012, the Fund's total assets and investment portfolio totaled $65,422,801 and $62,163,666, respectively. We show 1 historical shares outstanding datapoints in our SDOG shares outstanding history coverage, used to compute SDOG market cap on those dates.
Understanding the changing numbers of shares outstanding, the changing
share price, and the resulting changing SDOG market cap history over the course of time is important for investors
interested in comparing SDOG's market cap history versus its peers.
Many "beginner" or "novice" investors will look at one stock trading at a price of $10 per share and another trading at
a price of $20 per share and think the latter company is worth twice as much. Of course, that is a completely meaningless comparison without also knowing how many shares outstanding there are for each of the two companies,
and then calculating their respective market caps. Comparing the share price of SDOG versus a peer is one thing; comparing
SDOG market cap versus a peer is a completely different story.
Furthermore, via fluctuation both in per-share price and in the number of shares outstanding (via issuance of new shares over time, the repurchase of existing shares),
the market cap for a company like SDOG can fluctuate over the course of history.
