Dodge & Cox Stock Fund Class I (DODGX)

Dodge & Cox Stock Fund Class I is an actively managed mutual fund that primarily focuses on long-term growth of principal and income, with a secondary emphasis on providing reasonable current income. As a large value fund, it invests mainly in a diversified portfolio of medium-to-large, well-established U.S. companies that are considered undervalued by the market but have favorable long-term growth prospects. The fund’s disciplined, research-driven approach emphasizes fundamental analysis—taking into account factors such as financial strength, industry position, management quality, and material environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues relative to valuation. While the portfolio is U.S.-centric, it may allocate up to 20% of assets to international equities. The fund is managed by a seasoned investment committee with a collaborative, team-based process, aiming to identify and capitalize on opportunities within the large-cap value segment. Major sector exposures include healthcare, financials, and industrials, with distributions of dividends and capital gains throughout the year. Dodge & Cox Stock Fund Class I is notable for its low expense ratio and its role in offering investors broad exposure to value-oriented equities in the U.S. equity market.
