About FTYCX
FullerThaler Behavioral Small-Cap Equity Fund C Shares is a U.S. mutual fund that primarily invests in small-capitalization companies. Its central objective is long-term capital appreciation by building a diversified portfolio of U.S. small-cap stocks, aiming to maintain risk and return characteristics similar to those of the Russell 2000 Index. The fund distinguishes itself by applying behavioral finance principles—specifically, it seeks to capitalize on investor biases such as overreaction and underreaction to company news, using proprietary research to identify such opportunities. Managed by a seasoned team, the fund typically holds between 70 and 140 positions, investing across a range of sectors without a predetermined industry concentration, but will concentrate more heavily when its behavioral analysis deems it favorable. This approach makes the fund notable in the small-blend category, as it systematically analyzes market inefficiencies created by typical investor behavior rather than relying solely on traditional financial analysis. This strategy positions the fund as a unique participant in the small-cap space, providing broad exposure to the growth and value potential of lesser-known U.S. companies.
