Oak Associates is a nationally recognized investment management firm located in Akron, Ohio. Founded in 1985, Oak has spent decades focused on U.S equities and uncovering quality growth companies that can rise above market expectations. Our family of funds provides a range of concentrated growth strategies, across capitalizations and sectors.Our investment process begins with a top-down macroeconomic analysis, followed by fundamental bottom-up research.  To us, the appeal of an investment is driven by the long-term fundamentals of the company and its opportunity set, rather than short-term trading factors. We construct our portfolios with our best ideas, which means that our favorite stock ideas aren't diluted by investments in less-favored positions. Concentration takes discipline, conviction and experience. When we invest in a company, we do so with the intention of holding that stock for several years, not a few quarters. Being a good investor often requires not doing what the rest of the market is doing. We value independent thinking and believe it is beneficial to our investment perspective.Important Disclosure:This material is not authorized for distribution unless preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus.
