About SWDSX

The top holdings include well-known names such as JPMorgan Chase, Exxon Mobil, and Coca-Cola, reflecting a diversified approach within the large-cap universe. The fund employs a disciplined, fundamentally driven investment process using proprietary equity ratings to identify companies with strong dividend potential and robust fundamentals.
