FullerThaler Behavioral Unconstrained Equity Fund

Overview

U.S. all-cap mutual fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

  • As an “unconstrained” fund, stock selection is driven primarily by long-term capital appreciation potential. 

​

  • Seeks to capitalize on behavioral biases that may cause the market to over-react to old, negative information or under-react to new, positive information. 

​

  • Looks for companies with:

    • significant insider buying or stock repurchases (over-reaction)

    • large earnings surprises (under-reaction)​

​

  • Invests in domestic stocks with market capitalization similar to those included in the Russell 3000® Index

Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss.  Small- and mid-cap investing involves risks not associated with investing in more established companies, such as greater price volatility, business risk, less liquidity, and increased competitive threat.

Unless otherwise noted, index returns reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and capital gains, if any, but do not reflect fees, brokerage commissions or other expenses of investing. It is not possible to invest directly in the index.

The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating does not include any adjustment for sales loads. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10- year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.
