About FVILX
Forester Value Fund Class I is an open-end mutual fund focused on large-cap value investing within the United States equity market. Its primary objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing in stocks of large U.S. companies that the fund’s manager, Forester Capital Management, considers significantly undervalued based on intrinsic value analysis. The fund emphasizes rigorous fundamental analysis, targeting companies whose current market prices are low relative to earnings, book-to-market value, price-to-cash flow, and price-to-sales ratios, while also considering forward-looking metrics such as future earnings estimates and five-year return on equity. At least 65% of its net assets are invested in large-cap stocks with market capitalizations greater than $5 billion. The Forester Value Fund may adjust its market exposure and take defensive positions, including investments in short-term fixed income instruments or index options, when market conditions appear highly valued or uncertain. This approach provides investors with exposure to value-oriented strategies while emphasizing capital preservation and careful risk management through defensive tactics when deemed necessary.
Performance
FVILX had a total return of 29.36% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 8.33%.
