The fund’s equity holdings span a range of market capitalizations, from large to micro-cap companies, and include common and preferred stock as well as convertible securities. Top portfolio positions often reflect major Japanese sectors such as industrials, healthcare, financial services, and consumer cyclicals, as evidenced by notable holdings like Hitachi Ltd, Terumo Corp, Hoya Corp, and Fast Retailing Co. The Commonwealth Japan Fund plays a significant role for investors seeking targeted exposure to the Japanese economy, offering diversification across industries critical to Japan’s market landscape while aiming to balance growth and income objectives.
