About GSFTX

Columbia Dividend Income Fund Institutional Class is a mutual fund that seeks to provide investors with a blend of current income and long-term capital appreciation. Its primary strategy involves investing at least 80% of its net assets in a diversified portfolio of income-producing equity securities, primarily focusing on common stocks, though it may also hold preferred stocks and convertible securities. Emphasizing the value investment style, the fund targets companies believed to be undervalued, often identified by low price ratios and relatively high dividend yields, with slower growth profiles based on metrics like earnings and sales growth. The fund is positioned within the large value sector, and its top holdings frequently include leading companies across financial services, technology, consumer defensive, healthcare, and energy sectors. It distributes dividends quarterly, offering a notable yield as part of its income focus. Columbia Dividend Income Fund Institutional Class plays a significant role for investors seeking equity exposure combined with regular income, managing substantial assets while maintaining a relatively low turnover ratio. Its long-standing presence since 1998 underscores its established role in dividend-oriented, value-driven investment approaches within the mutual fund landscape.
