Fund Description

The fund was incepted in December 1995 and is managed by David W. Tice & Associates. The fund seeks capital appreciation. The fund is a no-load mutual fund specifically designed to benefit from stock market declines as the fund has more 'short' than 'long' positions. The fund takes 'long' and 'short' positions. That is, the fund buys stocks just like most mutual funds. The fund also takes short positions and purchases put options to benefit from an anticipated decline in a stock or stock index. Currently, significant portions of long positions are gold and silver mining companies. The fund distributes dividends and capital gains, if any, at the end of each calendar year.
