About TPDAX

Timothy Plan Defensive Strategies Fund Class A is a mutual fund that prioritizes capital preservation and portfolio stability, particularly during periods of economic uncertainty or high inflation. The fund employs a diversified strategy, allocating assets across physical gold bullion, inflation-protected securities such as U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS), real estate investments, and cash or cash equivalents. A notable feature of this fund is its direct holding of physical gold bullion, distinguishing it among diversified mutual funds aiming to hedge against inflation and market volatility. The fund actively adjusts its asset mix in response to prevailing economic conditions, often overweighting defensive assets like gold and TIPS when inflation risks or market instability are pronounced. Its holdings also include exposure to real estate investment trusts (REITs) and market neutral strategies, providing further diversification. Timothy Plan Defensive Strategies Fund Class A plays a distinct role in the financial markets as a vehicle for investors seeking resilience against rapidly changing market environments while pursuing long-term capital growth and principal preservation.
