About SHXAX
The American Beacon Shapiro Equity Opportunities Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in U.S. common stocks. Managed by Shapiro Capital Management, the fund employs a value-oriented investment approach, focusing on institutional-quality companies through a process rooted in deep fundamental research. The portfolio typically consists of a concentrated selection of equities across small-, mid-, and large-cap market capitalizations, with an emphasis on value stocks that may offer lower downside risk but potentially more moderate returns compared to riskier equity funds. As a result, the fund is exposed to volatility and liquidity factors often associated with smaller-cap holdings and is somewhat more sensitive to performance swings from individual positions due to its focused portfolio. By seeking undervalued opportunities across diverse sectors—such as financial services, technology, healthcare, and consumer cyclicals—the fund plays a role in offering differentiated, research-driven equity exposure for investors seeking value within the broader U.S. market landscape.
