About GACIX
Gabelli Small Cap Growth Fund Class I is an actively managed mutual fund focused on delivering capital appreciation by investing primarily in small capitalization companies. The fund allocates at least 80% of its net assets to equity securities of firms that, at the time of investment, have total market values below $3 billion. Its strategy centers on identifying small-cap companies with exceptional growth prospects, strong management teams, robust balance sheets, and above-average earnings and revenue growth potential. The portfolio is broadly diversified, typically holding several hundred stocks across multiple sectors, with a significant emphasis on industrials, consumer cyclicals, and financial services companies. Managed by Mario Gabelli, an industry veteran with decades of investment experience, the fund leverages fundamental, bottom-up research to uncover attractive, under-the-radar businesses in expanding or consolidating industries. By focusing on this dynamic segment of the equity market, the fund plays a vital role in offering access to high-potential growth opportunities unavailable in large-cap dominated portfolios, thereby serving investors seeking exposure to the unique risks and rewards of small-cap stocks.
