DFA U.S. Targeted Value Portfolio Institutional Class DFFVX Strategy

The investment seeks long-term capital appreciation; minimizing federal income taxes on returns is a secondary consideration. The fund purchases a broad and diverse group of the readily marketable securities of U.S. small and mid cap companies that the advisor determines to be value stocks with higher profitability. It may purchase or sell futures contracts and options on futures contracts for U.S. equity securities and indices, to increase or decrease equity market exposure based on actual or expected cash inflows to or outflows from the fund.
