LSV Investment Firm was founded in 1994 and currently oversees around $96 billion in assets as of June 30, 2024. The company specializes in managing equity through a quantitative value approach that identifies stocks undervalued in the market. The core investment principles of LSV are deeply influenced by behavioralfinance theories that aim to capitalize on market inefficiencies for investment outcomes. All these factors make LSV a trusted choice for investment.
We have chosen three LSV mutual funds — LSV Conservative Value Equity Investor (LVAVX - Free Report) , LSV Global Value Investor (LVAGX - Free Report) and LSV Small Cap Value Investor (LVAQX - Free Report) — that investors should buy now for the long term. These funds have a Zacks Mutual Fund Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy), positive three-year and five-year annualized returns, minimum initial investments within $5000 and expense ratios considerably lower than the category average. So, these funds have provided a comparatively stronger performance and carry a lower fee.
LSV Conservative Value Equity Investor invests most of its assets, along with borrowings, in equity securities, such as common stocks. LVAVX advisors also invest in companies with market capitalizations exceeding $1 billion.
