VSLU has a great deal of flexibility. The fund looks to hold mainly 200 large-cap equities, but the prospectus states the fund can reach in to the small- and midcap space. Using their own research models, the fund adviser looks for securities it believes to have a higher return potential based on a companys valuation, projected future earnings, dividends, leverage, growth potential, performance, and business strategy. The fund is non-diversified, allowing investment in fewer securities compared to diversified funds. The Adviser will sell investments when they no longer meet the desired investment criteria or grow too large relative to the portfolio.
