About FTEQX

Typically maintaining a diversified portfolio of 70 to 100 holdings, the fund emphasizes companies demonstrating strong earnings power and favoring financial metrics such as return on equity. Its investment approach spans a range of industries and sectors, aiming to capitalize on the potential growth and diversification benefits associated with smaller companies in less developed markets.
