- James Balanced: Golden Rainbow Fund (GLRBX) is a mutual fund that seeks total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation, with preservation of capital during market declines; it invests primarily in undervalued equity securities of domestic and foreign companies, including common stocks, preferred stocks, and equity exchange-traded funds (ETFs) across all market capitalizations, alongside fixed income securities such as U.S. government securities, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, sovereign bonds of any maturity, investment-grade non-U.S. government securities (rated Baa2/BBB or equivalent), and fixed income ETFs or high-quality money market instruments, normally allocating at least 25% of assets to equities and 25% to fixed income. The fund targets investors seeking long-term returns exceeding inflation over 3-5 years and operates within the moderately conservative allocation category, with net assets of approximately $422 million as of late 2025, a total expense ratio of 1.23% for the retail class, and an institutional share class (GLRIX) at 0.98%. Founded on July 1, 1991, the fund is managed by James Investment Research, Inc., based in Dayton, Ohio, with administrative operations at 1290 Broadway, Suite 1100, Denver, Colorado. The fund emphasizes a value-oriented approach, holding around 60 equity positions and 40 debt issues as of September 2025, with top sectors including information technology (14.6%), financials (9.5%), and consumer discretionary (5.3%), and leading holdings such as Microsoft Corp. (4.0%), NVIDIA Corp. (3.1%), and Apple Inc. (3.0%); approximately 95.7% of equity exposure is to U.S. companies, supplemented by minor positions in Switzerland and the Netherlands. It benchmarks against a blend of 25% VettaFi US Equity Large/Mid-Cap 1000 Index, 25% VettaFi US Equity Small-Cap 2000 Index, and 50% Bloomberg U.S. Intermediate Government/Credit Bond Index, delivering a since-inception average annual return of 7.01% for GLRBX through November 2025. In recent developments, the fund distributed long-term capital gains of $0.8889 per share in December 2025 and estimated gains of $0.8000 per share in early December 2025, alongside quarterly income dividends; its net assets grew amid a year-to-date return of 12.97% as of November 2025, reflecting sustained portfolio performance in a volatile market environment, with no reported acquisitions, partnerships, or structural reorganizations within the past 1-2 years. James Investment Research continues to serve as the adviser within the James Advantage Funds family, which includes the related James Small Cap Fund, maintaining a focus on controlled growth without capacity constraints.
