Fund Holdings

The fund is highly diversified, varying from 6 percent in micro caps to 18 percent in mega caps. Management particularly favors cigarette makers, which distribute natural gas and are forced by law to pay out the majority of profits. The fund provides safety by dividing its approximately 40 holdings into near-equal stock positions. No position is larger than 3 percent.
