About DCCAX
Macquarie Small Cap Core Fund Class A is a U.S.-focused mutual fund specializing in equities of small-cap companies. Its primary objective is long-term capital appreciation through a disciplined, research-driven approach. The fund invests predominantly in stocks of smaller firms that are considered to have attractive valuations, solid growth prospects, and strong cash flows. By targeting the often under-researched segment of the market, the fund seeks to capture opportunities overlooked by larger funds or passive benchmarks. The portfolio is diversified across multiple sectors, with notable allocations to industrials, energy, healthcare, basic materials, consumer cyclical, and technology companies. The fund is actively managed by an experienced team that places strong emphasis on in-depth stock selection and daily risk oversight. This approach aims to generate alpha primarily through fundamental analysis rather than broad market trends. Macquarie Small Cap Core Fund Class A plays a significant role in the small-blend mutual fund category, appealing to investors and institutions seeking targeted exposure to smaller U.S. companies with potential for robust long-term growth.
