ABC Dirt-Cheap Stock Fund
is a "go-anywhere in the world" equity fund with unlimited investment
flexibility. This deep-value fund has no company-size investment restrictions,
and, as a result, can opportunistically purchase overlooked, undervalued and
less liquid micro-capitalization stocks. We expect this fund to have a mix of
40-60 holdings comprised of Canadian, U.S. as well as Far East, Australian and
European equities. The fund will be closed to new money after September 1,
2006.
