Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | Management's Discussion of Fund Performance The following discussion compares the performance of the Fund to the Russell 1000 Value Index to show how the Fund’s performance compares to the returns of similar investments for the reporting period. See the Average Annual Total Returns table below for the returns of the Fund and related indexes, including the Russell 3000 Index, which represents approximately 98% of investable U.S. equities by market capitalization. The Fund seeks to provide above average income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in income-producing equity securities. Top Contributors to Performance ■ Security selection in the Communication Services, Consumer Discretionary, and Consumer Staples sectors had a positive contribution on Fund relative performance. ■ An overweight allocation to the Financials sector and underweight allocations to the Information Technology and Materials sectors aided performance. ■ Top individual holdings that contributed positively to performance included overweight positions in KKR & Co. Inc., Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and GE Aerospace. Top Detractors from Performance ■ Security selection in the Energy, Health Care, and Real Estate sectors detracted from Fund relative performance. ■ Overweight allocations to the Health Care and Communication Services sectors and holding cash detracted from performance. ■ Top individual Fund holdings that detracted from performance were overweight positions in Boeing Company, Global Payments Inc. and AstraZeneca PLC |
