Investment Objective
To produce a total return after fees exceeding that of the Russell 1000 Growth Index over a full market cycle.

Investment Policy
Turner Select Core Growth Equity is an actively managed portfolio of about 60-80 large cap growth stocks with 20-30% midcap exposure.  The portfolio is sector neutral to the S&P 500 Index and consists of shares of companies with strong earnings prospects, i.e., with Wall Street consensus earnings forecasts that on balance are higher than the average for the S&P 500 Index. (Past performance, of course, is no guarantee of future results.)

Investment Philosophy
For Turner's Select Core Growth Equity, we believe earnings expectations drive stock prices. We buy companies with strong earnings prospects and sell those with deteriorating prospects. We believe efforts to "time" the market and rotate among sectors are counterproductive. As a result, Turner Select Core Growth Equity is typically fully invested and maintains sector weightings that are "neutral" to — they mirror — the S&P 500 Index.

We avoid over-concentration in any individual security; we limit individual positions to a maximum of 2% of the portfolio (except for issues representing more than 2% of the S&P 500 Index, in which case we may hold positions up to 1.5 times their index weightings). Stock selection is the primary determinant of performance.

Investment Process
Turner Select Core Growth Equity's investment process involves the use of three tools to evaluate stocks with varied market capitalizations for investment or continued ownership:

• a proprietary computer model (10%), used to screen candidates for investment according to numerous earnings-growth and valuation factors. Companies thus screened are ranked from the first percentile (most attractive) to the 100th percentile (least attractive). Those ranked in the top 35% qualify for further consideration.
  
  
• fundamental analysis (80%), used to ascertain if the companies we follow will exceed, meet, or fall short of consensus earnings expectations.
  
  
• technical analysis (10%), used to evaluate trends in trading volume and prices of individual stocks.
