About PMDHX
Principal Small-MidCap Dividend Income Fund R6 is a mutual fund focused on delivering a combination of current income and long-term capital growth. The fund primarily invests at least 80% of its net assets in dividend-paying equity securities of small- and mid-capitalization companies, including both U.S. and select foreign stocks as well as real estate investment trusts. Its investment strategy emphasizes identifying companies with a history or potential for growing dividends, aiming to provide a smoother return profile relative to non-dividend payers and to reduce value-trap risks through a "quality-first" selection approach. Moreover, the fund maintains a sector-neutral stance to help mitigate concentrated risk, placing emphasis on individual company strength rather than making sector bets. The Principal Small-MidCap Dividend Income Fund R6 plays a significant role in the broader market by offering investors targeted exposure to the income and growth opportunities within the dynamic small- and mid-cap segments, coupled with a strategic focus on dividend sustainability and quality management practices. This makes it a useful vehicle for those seeking diversified access to U.S. small- and mid-sized company equities with a consistent income component.
