Mid-Cap Core Equity Strategy

The strategy seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing in mid-cap stocks (companies with market capitalizations similar to those in the Russell Midcap Index) that have attractive valuations relative to their sectors and improving fundamental characteristics.

What are the principles that have enabled the strategy to be successful?

Focus on opportunity — team looks for stocks with attractive valuation and favorable risk-reward characteristics.

Well-defined investment thesis — team identifies companies with solid fundamental characteristics unrecognized or disbelieved by the market and that have catalysts for improvement over a 12- to 18-month time horizon.

Team-based decision making — team members construct a diversified portfolio through continual discussion and debate of investment thesis on each stock. For each stock in the portfolio, new ideas, or sale candidates, team's fundamental research is focused on valuation and the investment thesis.
