About WEECX
Teton Westwood Equity Fund Class A is an actively managed mutual fund designed to achieve long-term capital appreciation while maintaining a prudent risk profile. The fund primarily invests in 40 to 60 common stocks of seasoned, large-capitalization companies, with a focus on those that have established operating histories and market capitalizations typically exceeding $1 billion. Its investment strategy emphasizes companies that have demonstrated positive earnings surprises and are trading below proprietary growth estimates, aiming to uncover undervalued opportunities within the market. To help control volatility, the fund favors stocks with a beta lower than that of the S&P 500 Index, reflecting a preference for lower-risk equities relative to broad market movements. By concentrating its portfolio in a limited number of holdings, the fund can take meaningful positions in its highest-conviction ideas, though this can increase exposure to individual company risks. The Teton Westwood Equity Fund Class A plays a notable role for investors seeking equity exposure to established companies through a disciplined and selective approach, prioritizing growth while seeking to manage downside risk.
