From the Northern website:
“Investor Profile
If you're a more aggressive investor looking for the value potential offered by the stocks of smaller companies — those the adviser believes are worth more than is indicated by current market prices — this Fund may be right for you. It is intended for equity investors with an above-average tolerance for volatility who want to diversify their investments and plan to invest for the long term without concern for current income.
Philosophy
We employ a highly structured, value-oriented approach as we invest primarily in small capitalization companies whose market capitalization is within the range of the Russell 2000 Index. We believe small companies offer superior opportunities for capital appreciation over time. Small-company stocks are generally riskier than large-company stocks due to greater volatility and less liquidity.”
Morningstar gives the fund 4 stars.
Current Returns:
1-Year: -4.34%
3-Year: 8.36%
5-Year: 16.10%
In its 2007 Fund Survey, Forbes Magazine picked this fund as one of its “Best Buys” for a Stock Fund in 2007, using various criteria such as fund expenses, diversification and returns.
