About NSMAX

Nuveen Small/Mid Cap Value Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on providing long-term capital appreciation. The fund primarily invests in equity securities of U.S. companies with small to mid-sized market capitalizations, targeting firms that appear undervalued and operate in industries with favorable or improving business fundamentals. Employing a bottom-up, research-driven process, the fund seeks to identify opportunities among companies within the Russell 2500 Value Index market cap range, which spans from approximately $9 million to $21.1 billion. With a diversified portfolio spread across sectors, it typically holds 64 stocks, and its top holdings represent a variety of industries including financials, healthcare, and industrials. The fund’s strategy makes it particularly relevant for investors interested in exposure to the value segment of the small and mid-cap equity markets, where growth potential is often paired with disciplined valuation criteria. Managed with an emphasis on fundamental analysis, the fund plays a role in portfolio diversification and provides access to segments of the equity market that may offer different risk and return characteristics compared to large-cap or growth-oriented funds.
