The Fund may also use a variety of equity-related derivatives, which may include equity futures and equity index futures, for various purposes including enhancing Fund returns, increasing liquidity and gaining exposure to particular markets in more efficient or less expensive ways. The Funds investment goal is to seek long-term capital growth of the Funds overall portfolio in accordance with the Funds name. In pursuing the growth of the Funds portfolio, the investment manager applies a bottom-up, value-oriented, long-term approach, focusing on the market price of a companys securities relative to the investment managers evaluation of the companys long-term earnings, asset value and cash flow potential. The investment manager also considers a companys price/earnings ratio, price/cash flow ratio, profit margins and liquidation value. The Fund may, from time to time, seek to hedge (protect) against currency risks, using certain currency-related derivative instruments, such as currency and cross currency forwards and currency futures contracts.
