- What does VASVX invest in?
- This investment vehicle primarily targets companies with medium market capitalization. Its three managers employ a value-oriented strategy, acquiring shares of businesses they believe are substantially underpriced and currently overlooked by the wider investment community. Due to the particular attributes and market capitalization of its holdings, the fund's returns may diverge considerably from broader market benchmarks. With a concentrated portfolio holding relatively few individual securities, it inherently carries a higher potential for sharp price swings. Consequently, it is best suited for investors with a long-term perspective, who might also find it a valuable addition to an existing, well-diversified investment collection.
