Summary
The investment seeks long-term capital appreciation. The fund employs a "long/short" investment strategy to attempt to achieve capital appreciation and manage risk by purchasing stocks believed by the Advisor to be undervalued and selling short stocks believed by the Advisor to be overvalued. It will generally maintain a net long bias; however, the fund will have at least some short exposure at all times. The net long exposure of the fund (gross long exposures minus gross short exposures) is usually expected to be between 50% and 100%. The fund will invest primarily in equity securities that are traded on U.S. securities exchanges.
