Date updated:01-10-2008

VAM Value Trust seeks long-term growth of capital. The fund invests primarily in equity securities that are undervalued relative to the long-term earning power or asset value of their peers. Typically we seek companies that are currently out of favor and thus generate substantial free cash flow that limits their downside risk. While a direct catalyst may not be identified I use macro analysis to ensure underlying business fundamentals remain strong until the catalyst arrives which usually leads to excellent price appreciation. It generally invests in companies with market capitalizations in excess of $5 billion but may invest in companies of any size. Sector allocations typically mirror the S&P 500 but do diverge as opportunties arise.
