Investment Objectives

The fund seeks to provide shareholders with (i) consistent long-term capital appreciation with an attractive risk-adjusted rate of return investing in a portfolio of U.S. listed equities; and (ii) less volatility and low correlation to U.S. equity markets by hedging the fund’s exposure to overall market risk.

Investment Strategy

The fund uses a multi-factor, fundamental rules-based portfolio selection strategy to select long portfolio securities from a universe of U.S. listed equities. The selection strategy emphasizes factors that have shown to be effective at differentiating between strong and weak performing stocks including but not limited to: fundamental change, valuation, growth and quality.
