About OAYBX

Oakmark Equity and Income Fund Advisor Class is a balanced mutual fund designed to provide both income and the preservation and growth of capital. The fund achieves its objectives by maintaining a diversified portfolio primarily composed of U.S. equity and fixed-income securities, typically allocating between 40% and 75% of assets to equities, with the remainder in various debt instruments and cash equivalents. The equity segment often features a concentrated selection of 30 to 60 holdings, allowing the fund’s highest-conviction ideas a meaningful influence on overall performance. The fund employs a disciplined, bottom-up value investing approach, focusing on companies trading at discounts to their intrinsic value and utilizing thorough in-house research and ongoing fundamental analysis. Its fixed-income allocation may include a mix of investment-grade and higher-yield, lower-quality bonds, which can add incremental income but introduces additional credit and market risk. Oakmark Equity and Income Fund is frequently used by investors seeking a moderate allocation strategy that combines potential for capital growth with income generation and risk mitigation, making it suitable for those interested in a balanced, long-term investment approach.
