About FEVCX

First Eagle U.S. Value Fund C is an actively managed mutual fund that seeks long-term capital growth by investing primarily in U.S. equity and debt securities. The fund takes a value-oriented approach, emphasizing risk mitigation and capital preservation. It allocates at least 80% of its assets to U.S. securities, with a notable portion dedicated to large-cap equities, while maintaining flexibility to invest in mid- and small-cap companies. A distinguishing feature of the fund is its significant allocation to gold and related investments—around 16.8%—which serves as a defensive measure against market volatility and inflationary pressures. The fund’s portfolio is diversified across multiple sectors, including materials, healthcare, communication services, financials, information technology, energy, and consumer staples. This broad sector exposure is complemented by a selective approach to holdings, with a relatively concentrated top ten positions representing nearly 40% of total assets. In addition to equities, the fund allocates modestly to fixed income and cash equivalents, enhancing its risk profile. Managed by an experienced team, First Eagle U.S. Value Fund C is recognized for its conservative, benchmark-agnostic strategy, aiming to provide steady growth while minimizing downside risk throughout changing market conditions.
