Summit Short-Term Government Fund
US> Large-Cap > Growth
Aug 21, 2007
It would hardly be a surprise that the Summit Short-Term Government Fund invests the majority of its assets in government and agency bonds. Targeted for risk-averse investors who seek stable income, the fund eliminates the credit risk from the portfolio and manages the interest rate risk with different strategies. In addition, Mike Schultz, the manager of the fund, aims to add alpha through investments in the agency mortgage-backed area.

Exploiting Human Emotions
Summit Everest Fund
> NA > NA
Mar 17, 2006
At Summit Investment Partners, the Everest portfolio team finds value in large cap, primarily domestic, stocks. Contrary to popular belief, the market at times is inefficient in pricing large cap stocks. This is the kind of opportunity which the fund seeks to profit from. The portfolio manager James McGlynn keeps a close tab on more than 400 stocks and follows a quantitative discipline to buy and sell stocks in the fund.
