Overview
Investment Strategy
The goal of the Davis All-Cap SMA is to create an opportunistic portfolio that can seek attractive businesses across all market caps, industries and sectors. This approach can make the Davis All-Cap SMA a potential foundation for an investor's diversified equity portfolio.
Using our signature Davis Investment Discipline, the Portfolio has outperformed the S&P 1500® Index since inception.
"By being highly selective and rejecting the vast majority of companies in the index, we’ve uncovered businesses with solid earnings, yet selling at some of the lowest valuations we have ever seen. We believe this sets the stage for attractive returns in the years ahead.”
– Portfolio Manager Chris Davis
