About JVMSX
John Hancock Funds III Disciplined Value Mid Cap Fund Class R2 is a mutual fund that focuses on delivering long-term capital growth with current income as a secondary objective. The fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of equity securities from U.S. companies with medium market capitalizations that exhibit value characteristics, such as lower price-to-earnings ratios or attractive dividend yields. Managed by John Hancock Investment Management LLC, the fund typically allocates at least 80% of its assets to mid-cap stocks, while allowing up to 20% in foreign currency-denominated securities for additional diversification. As an actively managed mid-cap value fund, it leverages rigorous fundamental analysis to identify undervalued opportunities across a broad range of sectors, including industrials, financial services, healthcare, and consumer cyclicals. The fund’s portfolio is widely diversified, typically holding over 100 equity positions, and does not include bonds. Known for its disciplined approach, the fund seeks to balance risk and return, experiencing both substantial gains in favorable markets and notable volatility during downturns. It is designed to play a crucial role in diversified portfolios, offering exposure to the U.S. mid-cap value segment and serving investors with a medium- to long-term investment horizon.
