Fund Holdings
Although the majority of the fund’s holdings tend to be in mid-cap territory, Nicklin says he looks for opportunities across the spectrum of company size. Investors shouldn’t be surprised to see a substantial number of large-cap holdings (about 33 percent as of Sept. 30, 2010) and a sprinkling of giant- and small-cap names. “We have big ones and small ones in [the fund],” Nicklin says. “If you look at any point in time you will see all three [market caps] in there, but the preponderance will be in that mid-cap range.” As of September 2010, management most heavily invested in the industrial materials sector followed by health care and energy. The fund is relatively concentrated with about 45 to 50 stocks on average.
