First Trust Nasdaq Rising Dividend Achievers Etf ETF Forecast

Buy or Hold candidate since May 20, 2026 Gain 8.66%

The First Trust NASDAQ Rising Dividend ETF price gained 0.359% on the last trading day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026), rising from $80.80 to $81.09. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 1.04% from a day low at $80.62 to a day high of $81.46. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 1.36% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 308 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 1 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $97.07 million.

The ETF lies in the lower part of a narrow and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $81.09 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the ETF is expected to rise 10.53% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $89.63 and $92.78 at the end of this 3-month period.
