About GATCX
Gabelli Asset Fund Class C is a diversified, open-end mutual fund designed to provide investors with long-term capital growth as its primary objective, while current income serves as a secondary goal. The fund typically invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities—including common and preferred stocks—listed on recognized exchanges. Its distinctive investment strategy centers on identifying companies trading below their estimated private market value (PMV), which reflects the price a knowledgeable acquirer might pay for the entire company. The management team prioritizes value opportunities where strategic catalysts, such as corporate restructurings or management changes, may unlock shareholder value. Diversification is achieved across market capitalizations, sectors, and geographies, with up to 25% of assets potentially allocated to non-U.S. issuers. Guided by a team of seasoned value investors, Gabelli Asset Fund Class C employs disciplined fundamental analysis, emphasizing metrics such as earnings history, balance sheet strength, and management quality. This approach positions the fund as a notable participant in the large-blend mutual fund category, aiming to capture growth by uncovering undervalued opportunities across the equity market.
