Historical volatility is the annualized standard deviation of an underlying's past returns, typically measured over rolling windows like 10, 20, 30, or 60 days. The RBLD 30 day historical volatility is one of the most widely watched readings because it balances responsiveness with stability. Comparing First Trust Alerian U.S. NextGen Infrastructure ETF's HV to its implied volatility reveals the volatility risk premium — when IV sits well above HV, option sellers tend to have an edge; when HV runs hot relative to IV, buyers may be underpaying for movement.

The First Trust Alerian U.S. NextGen Infrastructure ETF (the "Fund"), formerly First Trust Global Engineering and Construction ETF, seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Fund's fees and expenses) of an equity index called the Alerian U.S. NextGen Infrastructure Index (the "Index"). The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in the common stocks and real estate investment trusts ("REITs") that comprise the Index. The Fund, using an indexing investment approach, attempts to replicate, before fees and expenses, the performance of the Index.

The Index is owned and is developed, maintained and sponsored by VettaFi LLC ("VettaFi" or the "Index Provider"). The Index Provider retains the right at any time, upon prior written notice, to modify the Index methodology.
