U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Dfa Investment Dimensions Group INC.
Investment objective
The investment objective of the U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio is to achieve long-term capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
The U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio, using a market capitalization weighted approach, purchases a broad and diverse group of the readily marketable securities of U.S. small and mid cap companies that Dimensional Fund Advisors LP (the Advisor) determines to be value stocks. A companys market capitalization is the number of its shares outstanding times its price per share. In general, the higher the relative market capitalization of the eligible company, the greater its representation in the Portfolio. The Advisor may adjust the representation in the U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio of an eligible company, or exclude a company, after considering such factors as free float, momentum, trading strategies, liquidity, size, value, profitability, and other factors that the Advisor determines to be appropriate, given market conditions.
Securities are considered value stocks primarily because a companys shares have a low price in relation to their book value. In assessing value, the Advisor may consider additional factors such as price to cash flow or price to earnings ratios. In assessing profitability, the Advisor may consider different ratios, such as that of earnings or profits from operations relative to book value or assets. The criteria the Advisor uses for assessing value or profitability are subject to change from time to time. As a non-fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio will invest at least 80% of its net assets in securities of U.S. companies. As of the date of this Prospectus, the Advisor considers for investment companies whose market capitalizations are generally smaller than the 500th largest U.S.
company. As of December 31, 2017, companies smaller than the 500th largest U.S. company fall in the lowest 16% of total U.S. market capitalization. Total market capitalization is based on the market capitalization of U.S. operating companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NYSE American LLC, Nasdaq Global Market , Nasdaq Capital Market , or such other securities exchanges deemed appropriate by the Advisor. Based on market capitalization data as of December 31, 2017, the market capitalization of a company smaller than the 500th largest U.S. company would be $8,793 million or below. This dollar amount will change due to market conditions. The U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio may purchase or sell futures contracts and options on futures contracts for U.S. equity securities and indices, to adjust market exposure based on actual or expected cash inflows to or outflows from the Portfolio.
The Portfolio does not intend to sell futures contracts to establish short positions in individual securities or to use derivatives for purposes of speculation or leveraging investment returns. The U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to generate additional income.
