About HJPNX
The Hennessy Japan Fund Investor Class is an actively managed mutual fund designed to provide investors with exposure to high-quality, globally-oriented Japanese companies. The fund’s primary objective is long-term capital appreciation, achieved by investing at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities of Japanese firms. Managed by a Tokyo-based team, the fund employs a concentrated portfolio approach, focusing on a select number of "best ideas"—companies with strong balance sheets, durable competitive advantages, and consistent cash flow generation. Notable sector allocations include industrials, technology, financial services, and consumer defensive, with top holdings such as Hitachi Ltd., Mitsubishi Corp., and Tokyo Electron Ltd., as of the latest reporting. Leveraging in-depth, local research, the fund favors businesses that demonstrate sustainable growth and robust management, while seeking to limit downside risk. This strategy aims to capitalize on compelling valuation opportunities in the Japanese equity market, making the fund a key vehicle for accessing Japan’s economic landscape through a disciplined, quality-focused lens.
