About BVEFX
The investment seeks long-term capital appreciation.

The Advisor utilizes a bottom-up approach to stock selection, focusing on company fundamentals. The Advisor typically invests in companies with sound fundamentals that the Advisor believes are selling at discounted valuations and have low price-to-earnings ("P/E") ratios.
