About VSFSX
Federated Hermes Clover Small Value Fund R6 is a mutual fund that specializes in investing in value-oriented stocks of U.S. companies with small market capitalizations. The fund seeks to deliver long-term capital appreciation by targeting undervalued small-cap equities that demonstrate strong fundamentals but may be temporarily out of favor in the market. Its investment approach encompasses various types of value stocks, including deep value, relative value, and cyclical value opportunities, providing a style-pure alternative for investors interested in small-cap value exposure. The fund maintains a diversified portfolio across sectors, which helps manage risk, although diversification does not guarantee profit or protect against loss. The R6 share class is designed for institutional investors and commenced operations in 2016, offering no sales charges and a competitive expense structure. With a semi-annual dividend payout history, the fund plays a notable role in portfolios seeking to balance growth potential with income from equity investments, particularly within the small value market segment.
