The Fund seeks a favorable long-term total return, mainly through capital appreciation.
The fund uses proprietary quantitative models to select small-cap and mid-cap stocks from the Russell 2500 Index, scoring securities on valuation, earnings prospects, price trends, and other factors to identify those with significant long-term capital appreciation potential. The fund may also purchase foreign equities and use derivatives to implement its strategy. Because portfolio construction depends on the scoring models' analysis, fund performance may diverge from its benchmark if the models' predictions do not materialize as expected.

How it has done
TSMOX share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 13.89%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
Jun 2026 and Jul 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
The 6 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.69% | +40.84% | +96.21% | +75.37% | -14.77% | |
| 0.53% | +41.01% | +96.97% | +76.61% | -14.73% | |
| 0.46% | +41.23% | +97.63% | +77.54% | -14.70% | |
| 0.62% | +40.98% | +96.60% | +76.07% | -14.73% | |
| 0.78% | +40.75% | +95.66% | +74.76% | -14.85% | |
| 0.00% | +41.75% | +100.35% | +81.71% | -14.54% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 6.95pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.39pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
