- Commonwealth Japan Fund (CNJFX) is an open-end mutual fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation and current income through primary investments in equity securities of Japanese issuers, including common stocks, preferred stocks, and convertible securities; it may also hold debt securities denominated in Japanese yen. The fund emphasizes a large-cap blend investment style within the Japan Stock category, with a portfolio heavily allocated to non-U.S. stocks (approximately 95%), focusing on sectors such as industrials (around 33-35%), financial services (15%), healthcare (15%), and technology (9%); top holdings as of March 31, 2025, include Hitachi Ltd (4.7%), Terumo Corp (4.6%), Kajima Corp (4.2%), Asahi Intecc Co Ltd (4.2%), and Hoya Corp (4.0%). It features a net expense ratio of 1.75%, a minimum initial investment of $200, daily pricing, and availability exclusively to U.S. investors, with total net assets of approximately $6.19 million. Launched on July 10, 1989, the fund is part of the Commonwealth International Series Trust, domiciled in the United States with administrative operations linked to Houston, Texas. Managers Robert Scharar (since December 31, 1997) and Wesley Yuhnke (since August 31, 2002) oversee the portfolio, which maintains low turnover (around 9%) and paid year-end 2024 distributions of $0.0218 per share in ordinary investment income on December 16, 2024. In recent developments, the fund distributed its 2024 year-end dividends to shareholders of record as of December 13, 2024, reflecting ongoing portfolio management amid Japanese market conditions; portfolio holdings were updated as of March 31, 2025, showing continued emphasis on established Japanese conglomerates and industrials amid regional economic factors like government support and export access. No major acquisitions, partnerships, funding rounds, or structural reorganizations have been reported for the fund or its trust in the last 1-2 years, with operations remaining stable under Commonwealth Funds distribution by Ultimus Fund Distributors, LLC.
