About VOLMX
Volumetric Fund is an actively managed mutual fund that primarily invests in well-established U.S. stocks, focusing on large and mid-cap companies with annual revenues typically over $3 billion. The fund employs a unique investment strategy that blends value and growth equities, allocating assets between equities and cash or money market positions based on proprietary market indicators. Its management aims to achieve capital growth while providing downside protection to minimize risk by adjusting exposure depending on prevailing market conditions—typically holding 70% to 95% in stocks and the remainder in cash or equivalents, but increasing cash positions in negative market environments. The fund leverages the Volumetric Trading System—a technical analysis approach that monitors the flow of money in and out of stocks through volume activity, identifying opportunities when new demand is detected and scaling back positions when market signals weaken. The portfolio is diversified across multiple sectors, including technology, industrials, financial services, and consumer discretionary, often holding a mix of direct equities and broad-market ETFs. With a history dating back to 1979, Volumetric Fund serves investors seeking a disciplined and conservative equity approach, balancing growth ambitions against the need to protect capital during market downturns.
