About ADKSX
The Adirondack Small Cap Fund is an actively managed mutual fund that focuses on investing in undervalued small capitalization companies. Its primary objective is to provide long-term capital appreciation by seeking out small-cap stocks that have fallen out of favor with investors, often targeting turnaround situations before they attract mainstream attention. The fund follows a 'middle-down' research process, first identifying attractive industries and then selecting specific companies within these sectors that meet strict value criteria. Diversification is a key approach, with the fund assembling a varied portfolio across sectors such as technology, financial services, healthcare, real estate, and consumer defensive industries. Managed by Adirondack Research and Management since its inception in 2005, the fund is owner-operated and no-load, emphasizing alignment between management and shareholders. With a reputation for independent thinking and patient investment, the Adirondack Small Cap Fund holds a distinctive place among small-cap value funds in the U.S. mutual fund market, aiming to deliver compelling risk-adjusted returns over the long term.
