(ICARX) Asian Values Aug 28, 11:24 AM EDT |
|
| Investing in Asian Pacific stocks is a daunting task. With more than fifteen exchanges, currencies and economic cycles, investment managers need a specific focus and well-honed quantitative discipline. The ICON Asia-Pacific Region Fund invests in sectors and industries rather than companies to mitigate country and currency risks. The sectors and industries across the region may be a better way to exploit investment arbitrage than to build a country-specific fund.

(SWOIX) Five International Managers in One Fund Aug 25, 11:22 AM EDT |
|
| Jeffrey Mortimer’s job isn’t stock picking. Instead, he picks managers, and more importantly, he picks how much capital is allocated to each manager. The goal is to achieve a broadly diversified international fund that can have a value tilt or a growth tilt depending on the macroeconomic environment. A key aspect of the fund’s strategy is the focus on future, not past performance, and that is achieved through a proprietary mean reversion model. |

|
| In a world where oil supply is tight, demand is rising, and OPEC plays a big role in pricing, it’s hardly surprising that investors are benefiting from the strong surge in energy prices. Tim Guinness, the manager of the Guinness Atkinson global

(VPAOX) The More The Better Aug 17, 10:53 AM EDT |
|

This is what the Vantagepoint Aggressive Opportunities Fund does. The fund provides
an opportunity to invest with some of the best growth stock investors around. |

(FEINX) Contrarian In Search of Value Aug 09, 8:56 AM EDT |
|
| The Fifth Third Disciplined Large-Cap Value Fund exploits the tendency of the market to price stocks based on an extrapolation of recent results. In fact, growth rates exhibit
little persistence over time, so that buying out-of-favor, low expectation stocks with low P/E’s, low price to book ratios and above average yields is a winning strategy. |

(PREOX) The Smallest Companies Out There Aug 07, 7:37 AM EDT |
|
| Perritt Emerging Opportunities Fund was created with the idea to invest in the smallest companies to be discovered, smaller even than the companies in Perritt MicroCap Opportunities Fund. The philosophy behind microcap investing is simple – the smaller the companies, the better the potential
long-term return. But because of the specific risks of this micro space, it’s the research effort that makes the difference. |
