About NSCAX
The Nuveen Small Cap Value Opportunities Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on identifying and investing in equity securities of small-cap companies that appear undervalued relative to their intrinsic worth. Its strategy centers on companies in industries with positive or improving business fundamentals, selected through a qualitative, bottom-up research process. By targeting small market capitalization firms, the fund aims to uncover growth opportunities that may be overlooked by broader market indices. This fund typically maintains at least 80% of assets in small-cap equities, emphasizing value-oriented selections across a diverse array of sectors. The fund plays a significant role for investors seeking access to the potential upside of smaller, undervalued U.S. companies while diversifying overall portfolio risk away from large-cap and growth-focused assets. Nuveen’s management approach leverages research-driven insights to capitalize on inefficiencies within the small-cap segment of the market, contributing to its relevance among value-oriented equity funds.
