Fund Holdings
As of late 2010, the fund had nearly 59 percent of its holdings in mid-cap companies. “I intend to maintain the fund’s market cap at a higher level than the Russell [2000] index [the fund’s benchmark] due to the critical need for liquidity,” Sassine said in the fund’s April 2010 shareholder update. “The ability to buy and sell stocks quickly, particularly during volatile market environments like we saw during the global financial crisis, has been a critical component of the fund’s ability to protect capital and generate strong performance for shareholders.”
Small and micro-caps make up 34 percent of the fund’s assets and large caps round out the remainder of the fund, at about 7 percent of total assets. As of late 2010, the fund was most heavily invested in information technology, followed by the business services, financial services, and consumer goods sectors.
