About SSCYX
The Saratoga Small Capitalization Portfolio Fund Class A is an actively managed mutual fund focused on investing primarily in U.S. companies with smaller market capitalizations. Its strategy calls for allocating at least 80% of total assets to common stocks within the small-cap universe, with a significant emphasis on firms valued at less than $1 billion and at least one-third of assets in companies under $550 million in market capitalization. Managed by Zacks Investment Management, the fund incorporates a systematic, multi-factor investment approach rooted in statistical anomalies and academic research, aiming for long-term capital appreciation through disciplined stock selection. Featuring a diversified portfolio of over 100 holdings, the fund spans multiple sectors, including consumer discretionary, real estate, financials, and industrials, among others. The fund seeks to capture growth potential and price inefficiencies often found in the small-cap segment, making it a representative vehicle for investors seeking broad exposure to early-stage or emerging U.S. companies. Its performance is typically measured against small-cap benchmarks such as the Russell 2000 Index, and it is categorized by Morningstar as a "small blend" fund, reflecting a balance between growth and value stocks within the small-cap segment.
