The Gabelli Asset Fund seeks to provide growth of capital. Capital is the amount of money you invest in the Fund. The Fund's secondary goal is to provide current income.
Principal Investment Strategies:
The Fund will primarily invest in common stocks and preferred stocks and may also invest in securities which may be converted into common stocks. In making stock selections, the Fund strives to earn a 10% real rate of return. The Fund focuses on companies which appear underpriced relative to their private market value (PMV). PMV is the value the Fund's investment adviser,Gabelli Funds, LLC, believes informed investors would be willing to pay for a company.
The Fund may appeal to you if:
you are a long-term investor
you seek growth of capital
you believe that the market will favor value over growth stocks over the long term
you wish to include a value strategy as a portion of your overall investments
You may not want to invest in the Fund if:
you are seeking a high level of current income
you are conservative in your investment approach
you seek stability of principal more than growth of capital
The Fund's share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund's portfolio securities.
Stocks are subject to market, economic and business risks that cause their prices to fluctuate. When you
sell Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them. Consequently, you can lose
money by investing in the Fund.
Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, sales charges and expense of the fund carefully before investing. The prospectus contains more complete information about this and other matters. The prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
