Philosophy & Process
To pursue its investment objective of long-term capital appreciation, the Fund normally invests principally in equity securities and will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes in the securities of small or middle capitalization companies (commonly referred to collectively as "SMID"). Small or middle capitalization companies are defined as companies with market capitalizations within the range of those companies in the Russell 2500â„¢ Index at the time of purchase.
The Fund invests, under normal market conditions, primarily in domestically-traded U.S. common stocks and U.S.-traded equity stocks of foreign companies, including ADRs. The Fund uses a multi-style approach, meaning that it invests across both value- and growth-oriented companies targeting SMID-capitalization levels.
Investment Considerations
The Fund uses a multi-style approach and invests in both growth and value-oriented companies. A growth investment style may be particularly sensitive to market conditions. Value investing involves the risk that an investment made in undervalued securities may not appreciate in value as anticipated or remain undervalued for long periods of time.
The Fund invests in small and middle capitalization companies which may be riskier, more volatile and vulnerable to economic, market and industry changes than investments in larger more established companies. As a result, share price changes may be more erratic or trade less frequently in lesser quantities.
