Principal investment strategy
"Normally, the portfolio invests at least 80% of its total assets in equity securities of real estate investment trusts (REITs) and other real estate industry issuers. The portfolio may at times emphasize particular sub-sectors of the real estate industry. For purposes of the portfolio's investment policies, equity securities include common stocks and other equity instruments, such as funds that invest primarily in equity securities, warrants, rights, and preferred stocks. The portfolio may invest up to 20% of its total assets in debt securities of real estate industry issuers, mortgage-backed securities and short-term investments. The portfolio may invest up to 5% of its net assets in below investment grade debt securities (known as ""junk bonds""), including below investment grade convertible debt securities.
The portfolio may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers. Up to 10% of the portfolio's total assets may be invested in the securities of emerging markets issuers. The portfolio may, but is not required to, use derivatives. The portfolio may use derivatives, such as options and futures, for a variety of purposes, including; in an attempt to hedge against adverse changes in the market price of securities, interest rates or currency exchange rates; as a substitute for purchasing or selling securities; to attempt to increase the portfolio's return as a non-hedging strategy that may be considered speculative; to manage portfolio characteristics: and as a cash flow management technique. The portfolio may choose not to make use of derivatives for a variety of reasons, and any use may be limited by applicable law and regulations.
The portfolio also may hold cash or other short-term investments. The portfolio may invest in fewer than 40 securities. The portfolio may invest in initial public offerings of equity securities. The portfolio uses a ""growth at a reasonable price"" style of management. The adviser seeks to invest in companies with above average potential for earnings and revenue growth that are also trading at attractive market valuations. To select stocks, the adviser employs fundamental and qualitative research and an evaluation of the issuer based on its financial statements and operations. The adviser focuses on the quality and price of individual issuers and securities. The adviser generally sells a portfolio security when it believes that the issuer no longer offers the potential for above average earnings and revenue growth."
