ABOUT THIS FUND
HELS actively invests up to 130% of net assets in long positions and 30% in short positions, primarily in US-listed equities. Portfolio construction leverages proprietary fundamental research and risk signals, aligning position size and duration with signal strength across individual trades, trends, and time horizons. The funds adviser selects companies considered to have sustainable competitive advantages and positive change catalysts, such as accelerating sales, cyclical recoveries, operational improvements, and capital structure enhancements. Short positions target companies with negative attributes like declining sales or weak financials. The portfolio typically holds 3050 longs and 1530 shorts, using risk management techniques for diversification. The fund may invest in ADRs, ETFs, derivatives, and securities lending intending to deliver more efficient risk/return characteristics than long-only funds.
