The Select Ten Portfolio
from Defined Asset Funds [Registered]
The 30 companies of the Dow Jones Industrial Average(*) (DJIA) are known the
world over as giants of global industry. Now, there's a strategic approach to
investing designed to select value stocks from this classic index. The aim is
two-fold: capital appreciation and current dividends . . .
Select Ten Portfolio
The Strategy
The Select Ten Strategy selects the ten highest dividend-yielding stocks from
the DJIA, and invests approximately equal dollar amounts in each stock. A higher
yield may indicate that a stock is out of favor, since the dividend yield often
increases as the stock's price declines.
Since these companies represent large-cap industry leaders, their size, strength
and financial stability may give them the resiliency to overcome adversity and
recover from current under-valuation.
(*) Dow Jones & Company, Inc., owner of the name "Dow Jones Industrial
Average," is unaffiliated with, and did not participate in the creation of
this Portfolio or the selection of its stocks, and has neither reviewed nor
approved any information in the prospectus relating to this Portfolio.
Select Ten Advantages
- The Universe. Stocks are chosen from the respected Dow Jones Industrial
Average.
- New Portfolio Annually. The Strategy is reapplied every year to capitalize
on new opportunities.
<PAGE>
- Discipline. The one-year Strategy eliminates the need to make buy and sell
decisions on individual stocks.
- Convenience. The Portfolio provides diversification among ten securities,
with one price that you can easily track daily on our Web site.
- Tax Efficiency. If you hold this Fund for more than one year, you may be
eligible for favorable federal tax rates on any net long-term capital
gains.
