] is as much a risk manager as he is a fund manager. With a portfolio heavily weighted in the health care, industrial and consumer service sectors, McDowell said he and his team look for small, under-the-radar companies that have something unique to offer. Once they find a potential investment, they use an in-depth analysis of the fundamentals to see if it’s worth adding to the portfolio.
But because the stocks McDowell’s fund chooses are small and therefore risky, he said he’s always ready to mix up the holdings. And contrary to popular belief, McDowell said the goal of amassing a portfolio of small names is not to hope for takeovers but to see the companies grow. After all, many of the biggest stocks in the market were small caps once.
