Fund Description

•
Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 65% of its total assets in stocks, primarily common stock.
•
Using a predominantly quantitative analysis, with some additional fundamental analysis depending on market conditions, the Fund invests principally in stocks of companies that had low price volatility in the past. The Fund’s Adviser believes that investing in a portfolio of companies with low price volatility will lead to future capital appreciation.
•
The Fund may invest a significant amount of its assets from time to time in technology sectors.
•
The Fund generally purchases common stock of companies whose characteristics are comparable to those included in the Russell 1000® Growth Index (“Index”). The equity capitalization range of public companies in the Index was $134.6 million to $4,531 billion December 31, 2025.
•
The Fund is classified as non-diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, and may invest more of its assets in fewer issuers than “diversified” mutual funds.
