Fund Description
Under normal circumstances, we invest:
| ■ | at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets in equity securities of U.S. large-capitalization companies. |
We invest principally in equity securities of large-capitalization companies, which we define as companies with market capitalizations within the range of the S&P 500 Index at the time of purchase. The market capitalization range of the S&P 500 Index was approximately $6.75 billion to $3.41 trillion, as of October 31, 2024, and is expected to change frequently. We may use futures contracts in order to equitize cash.
We employ a risk controlled investment approach in seeking to construct a broadly diversified portfolio of companies with a superior valuation and earnings profile. Our research, which utilizes a combination of quantitative methods and fundamental analysis, identifies companies based on valuation, quality and momentum characteristics that give a comprehensive view of each company’s relative valuation, operational and financial performance, and stock price behavior. We regularly review the investments of the portfolio and may sell a portfolio holding when, among other reasons, we believe there is deterioration in the underlying fundamentals of the business.
