| The
Core Value Equity investment process is driven by our
multi-factor quantitative model. Top-down analysis of the
economy and capital markets identifies and ranks the most
attractive market sectors in which to invest.
We focus our bottom-up research on companies within the most
attractive sectors, overweighting them relative to index
weightings. Conversely, when relative weakness is identified, we
underweight those sectors.
Our model ranks both market sectors and individual companies
on valuation, relative strength and risk level. The result is a
portfolio of large cap, undervalued and financially strong
companies whose stock performance is positioned to outperform
the broad market.
