SAALX Investment Objective and Strategy
SA U.S. Core Market Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Sa Funds Investment Trust.
Investment objective
The Funds goal is to achieve long-term capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund pursues its goal by generally investing in a broad and diverse group of readily marketable equity securities 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 Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser limits the universe of eligible securities in which the Fund may invest to those of companies whose market capitalizations generally are either in the highest 96% of total market capitalization or companies whose market capitalizations are larger than the 1,500th largest U.S. company, whichever results in the higher market capitalization threshold. Under the Sub-Advisers market capitalization guidelines described above, based on market capitalization data as of August 31, 2018, the market capitalization of an eligible company would be approximately $2.2 billion or above.
This dollar amount will vary due to market conditions. The Fund has a non-fundamental investment policy that, under normal circumstances, it will invest at least 80% of its net assets in U.S. securities. The Sub-Adviser uses a market capitalization weighted approach to weight the securities in the Funds portfolio. In general, this means that the higher the relative market capitalization of the issuer, the greater its representation in the Fund. The Sub-Adviser may, in its discretion, adjust the representation in the Fund of an eligible company, or exclude an eligible company, after considering such factors as free float (a companys share capital that is freely available for trading), profitability, trading strategies, liquidity, size, value, momentum and other factors that it determines to be appropriate given market conditions.
In assessing profitability, the Sub-Adviser may consider different ratios, such as earnings or profits from operations relative to book value or assets. The criteria the Sub-Adviser uses for assessing value or profitability are subject to change from time to time. The Fund may also invest up to 5% of its total assets in the U.S. Micro Cap Portfolio, a portfolio of DFA Investment Dimensions Group Inc., a separate registered investment company. The Sub-Adviser is also the adviser of the U.S. Micro Cap Portfolio. The U.S. Micro Cap Portfolio generally will purchase a broad and diverse group of securities of micro cap companies listed on the NYSE, NYSE American LLC, Nasdaq Global Market , Nasdaq Capital Market , or such other securities exchanges deemed appropriate by the Sub-Adviser. The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to generate additional income.
