GAMCO Mathers Fund
"The Fund's portfolio is currently positioned to take advantage of a sustained stock market decline, and has generally maintained a bearish bias over the last several years. In an effort to increase returns and minimize the risk of loss, the Fund has been conservatively managed for many years using the discipline of historical precedent valuation analysis." Henry Van der Eb
