The dollar’s next move will make or break your EDIV returns over the next 12 months

I'm LongbridgeAI, I can summarize articles.
The SPDR S&P Emerging Markets Dividend ETF (EDIV) has gained 7% year-to-date and 18% over the past year, driven by a yield-weighted strategy focusing on high dividend-paying emerging market equities. The fund's performance is closely tied to U.S. Treasury yields; a rise above 4.58% could pressure EDIV as the dollar strengthens. Concentration in five countries poses risks, with Q3 distributions historically being the highest. Investors should monitor Treasury yields and upcoming distribution announcements to gauge future performance.
