Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | How did the Fund perform? During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Gabelli Value 25 Fund underperformed its broad-based benchmark, the S&P 500. The S&P 500’s record performance has primarily been driven by a concentrated group of technology-enabled growth stocks. Our Fund, in comparison, focuses on companies that appear underpriced relative to their private market value (PMV). During the first half of the year, the top contributors to our Fund consisted of companies with strong balance sheets and disciplined capital allocations histories. First half detractors included companies adversely impacted by changes in consumer behavior and individual corporate developments. |
