DFA US Large Value
Historical Performance
Objective And Strategy
ObjectiveLong-term capital appreciation.
Strategy
Purchases a broad and diverse group of readily marketable common stocks of large U.S. companies that the Advisor determines to be value stocks. In general, the higher the relative market capitalization of the U.S. large cap company, the greater its representation in the Portfolio. The Advisor may adjust market capitalization weights after considering such factors as momentum, trading strategies, liquidity management and other factors that the Advisor determines appropriate, given market conditions. As a non-fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, Portfolio will invest at least 80% of its net assets in securities of large cap U.S. companies. The Portfolio may use derivatives, such as futures contracts and options on futures contracts for U.S. equity securities and indices.
Low Cost Fund
Principle Risks
* This portfolio can leverage or use leveraged instruments or derivatives. Portfolios that use leverage, that is, borrow money, are subject to the risk that the cost of borrowing money to leverage will exceed the returns for the securities purchased or that the securities purchased may actually go down in value. Thus the portfolio's net asset value can decrease more quickly than if the portfolio had not borrowed. Portfolios that use leveraged instruments or derivatives such as futures, options and swap agreements, may expose the portfolio to additional risks that it would not be subject to if it invested directly in the securities underlying those derivatives. The more a portfolio invests in leveraged instruments, the more the leverage will magnify any gains or losses on those investments.
* Securities lending involves the risk that the borrower may fail to return the securities in a timely manner or at all. As a result, the portfolio may lose money and there may be a delay in recovering the loaned securities. The portfolio could also lose money if it does not recover the securities and/or the value of the collateral falls, including the value of investments made with cash collateral. Securities lending also may have certain potential adverse tax consequences.
