Established in 1969, the fund applies the Davis Investment Discipline, emphasizing selective investment in durable, well-managed businesses that possess sustainable competitive advantages and attractive long-term growth prospects, often purchased at value prices. The portfolio is constructed through rigorous, bottom-up equity research, leading to concentrated holdings in companies with strong balance sheets, significant free cash flow, and proven management teams. Historically, the fund has maintained notable allocations to financial services and technology sectors, as reflected by its top holdings, which often constitute more than half of assets. Serving as a core large-cap value offering, it is benchmarked against the S&P 500 and is recognized for its flexible, opportunistic approach that does not strictly mirror index weights.
