RTGs:
Large-Cap Value
Objective
The Large-Cap Value folio was designed for investors seeking long-term capital appreciation with volatility generally higher than the overall U.S. equity market.
Strategy
The Large-Cap Value folio consists of large-cap companies that appear undervalued based on their price-to-book ratio as compared to the overall market. Large-cap companies are defined as having market capitalizations above $11 billion USD.
A value approach seeks to identify companies whose stock prices do not appear to reflect their underlying value. Large-cap securities typically offer more stable returns as compared to small- and mid-cap companies due to their more developed product lines, higher cash availability, and more seasoned management. By investing in stocks that appear to be out of favor or otherwise undervalued, this folio is intended to be less volatile than investing in growth stocks. This folio’s broad diversification makes it potentially less volatile than more concentrated large-cap value mutual funds.

Steps to Create This Folio
- We identified large-cap stocks as those having market capitalizations greater than $11 billion.
- We screened for stocks with low price-to-earnings and price-to-book ratios compared to the sector average.
- We ranked these large-cap stocks by market capitalization and targeted the sector weights to be comparable to those of the largest 500 securities.
- We equally weighted all securities in the folio.

Your returns may deviate significantly from the values displayed here, due to many factors, including how long after a folio has been updated that you place orders to update your holdings.
