ABC DIRT-CHEAP STOCK FUND OVERVIEW
OBJECTIVE
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.
