About WMICX
The Wasatch Micro Cap Fund Investor Class is an actively managed mutual fund that focuses on achieving long-term capital growth by investing primarily in micro-cap companies. These are businesses with market capitalizations generally below $1.5 billion at the time of purchase, often representing a less efficient and under-researched segment of the equity markets. The fund typically holds between 50 and 80 individual stocks, employing a bottom-up, fundamental research approach to identify companies with strong growth potential. Its portfolio spans a diverse range of industries, with particular concentration in healthcare, financial services, technology, consumer defensive, and industrials sectors. The fund may allocate up to 30% of its assets to foreign equities, adding an element of global diversification. With an inception date in 1995, the Wasatch Micro Cap Fund has established a long performance track record. It is widely recognized for its focus on the micro-cap space—a niche that can offer unique opportunities for skilled managers and stock pickers due to market inefficiencies.
