Description

The Ariel Appreciation Fund primarily allocates its capital to mid-capitalization companies deemed undervalued but possessing robust growth potential. Its portfolio predominantly consists of shares in American firms whose market capitalization falls within the typical range of constituents of the Russell Midcap® Index, as assessed at the moment of the initial investment. The investment approach employed by the fund is grounded in the Adviser's contrarian philosophy, a method underpinned by three core, interconnected principles: patience, focus, and independent thinking.
