About VSFRX
Federated Hermes Clover Small Value Fund Class R is an actively managed mutual fund focused on capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks and other equity securities of U.S. companies with small market capitalizations. The fund identifies companies considered undervalued based on key value metrics such as price-to-cash flow and seeks opportunities across a broad range of industries. By targeting small-cap firms, it provides exposure to businesses that may have higher growth potential but also greater risk and volatility relative to larger, more established companies. The fund employs a value investing approach, emphasizing stocks trading below their perceived intrinsic value, often resulting in a portfolio with a higher income component through dividends. Designed for diversification, the fund’s holdings span multiple sectors, though sector allocations may be more concentrated at times, making it sensitive to developments in specific industries. Launched in December 2010, the fund plays a role in providing investors with access to the growth and income opportunities available in the U.S. small-cap value segment, while managing the inherent risks of this asset class.
