C000147172 Investment Objective and Strategy
AB All Market Income Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Ab Cap Fund, Inc..
Investment objective
The Fund's investment objective is to seek current income with consideration of capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
"The Adviser will allocate the Fund's investments primarily among a broad range of income-producing securities, including common stock of companies that regularly pay dividends (including real estate investment trusts), debt securities (including high-yield debt securities, also known as ""junk bonds""), preferred stocks, and derivatives related to these types of securities. In addition, the Fund may engage in certain alternative income strategies that generally utilize derivatives to diversify sources of income and manage risk. The Fund pursues a global strategy, typically investing in securities of issuers located in the United States and in other countries throughout the world, including emerging market countries. In selecting equity securities for the Fund, the Adviser will focus on securities that have high dividend yields and are undervalued by the market relative to their long-term earnings potential.
The Adviser intends to gain exposure to high-yield debt securities through investment in the AB High Income Fund and may, in the future, gain such exposure through direct investments in high-income securities. It is expected that the Fund will pursue a number of generally derivatives-based alternative investment strategies, such as taking long positions in currency derivatives on higher yielding currencies and/or short positions in currency derivatives on lower yielding currencies. The Adviser will adjust the Fund's investment exposure utilizing the Adviser's Dynamic Asset Allocation (""DAA"") approach. DAA comprises a series of analytical and forecasting tools employed by the Adviser to gauge fluctuations in the risk/return profile of various asset classes. DAA seeks to adjust the Fund's investment exposure in changing market conditions and thereby reduce overall portfolio volatility by mitigating the effects of market fluctuations, while preserving consistent long-term return potential.
For example, the Adviser may seek to reduce the Fund's risk exposure to one or more asset classes when DAA suggests that market risks relevant to those asset classes are rising but return opportunities are declining. In addition to directly increasing or decreasing asset class exposure by buying or selling securities in that asset class, the Adviser may pursue DAA implementation for the Fund by investing in derivatives and exchange-traded funds (""ETFs""). The Adviser intends to utilize a variety of derivatives in its management of the Fund. The Adviser may use derivatives to gain exposure to an asset class, such as using interest rate derivatives to gain exposure to sovereign bonds. As noted above, the Adviser may separately pursue certain alternative investment strategies that utilize derivatives, and may enter into derivatives in making the adjustments called for by DAA.
As a result of the use of derivatives and short sales of securities, the Fund will frequently be leveraged, with gross investment exposure substantially in excess of its net assets. Currency exchange rate fluctuations can have a dramatic impact on returns. The Fund's foreign currency exposures will come both from investments in equity and debt securities priced or denominated in foreign currencies and from direct holdings of foreign currencies and currency-related derivatives. The Adviser may seek to hedge all or a portion of the currency exposure resulting from Fund investments or decide not to hedge this exposure. The Adviser may seek investment opportunities by taking long or short positions in currencies through the use of currency-related derivatives."
