- HCM Income Plus Fund Investor Class Shares (HCMKX) is an open-end mutual fund that seeks total return through active management of a multi-asset class portfolio. The fund invests primarily in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) spanning foreign and domestic equity securities of any market capitalization; fixed income securities of any maturity, duration, and credit quality, including junk bonds and convertible bonds; other investment companies such as mutual funds, closed-end funds, and additional ETFs; cash and cash equivalents; and put and call options, employing a proprietary quantitative model to select holdings based on sector strength and enabling concentrated allocations in a single asset class as market conditions warrant. It offers three share classes—Class A (HCMEX, with 5.75% maximum sales charge and $2,500 minimum initial investment), Class I (HCMLX), and Investor Class (HCMKX)—managed by Vance Howard since inception, with total net assets of approximately $503 million as of late 2025. The fund, classified in the Morningstar Moderate Allocation category, maintains a flexible asset allocation without fixed targets, utilizing frequent trading to adapt to model signals, and features top holdings such as iShares Core U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF, ProShares Ultra QQQ, Vanguard Mega Cap Growth ETF, Invesco QQQ Trust, and ProShares Ultra S&P 500 as of November 30, 2025. Launched on November 9, 2016, and domiciled in the United States as a series of Northern Lights Fund Trust III, the fund is advised by Howard Capital Management, Inc. (HCM), a SEC-registered investment advisory firm founded in 1999 and headquartered at 225 Pictoria Drive, Suite 450, Cincinnati, Ohio. It primarily targets investors seeking a blend of income and growth through diversified, tactically allocated exposures, with portfolio composition typically including significant allocations to U.S. stocks (around 44%), cash (37%), U.S. bonds (18%), and smaller positions in non-U.S. bonds and stocks. In a significant recent development, effective July 21, 2025, the fund underwent a name change from HCM Income Plus Fund to HCM Multi-Asset Plus Fund across all share classes, as announced in a prospectus supplement dated June 20, 2025, with corresponding updates to references in offering documents. This rebranding aligns with similar changes for affiliated HCM funds, such as HCM Dividend Sector Plus Fund to HCM Sector Plus Fund and HCM Tactical Growth Fund to HCM Tactical Plus Fund, reflecting a strategic shift in nomenclature while preserving investment objectives and strategies. No major acquisitions, funding rounds, partnerships, or new product launches were reported in the past 1-2 years, though the fund continues to evolve its holdings dynamically in response to quantitative signals amid shifting market conditions, including a noted tilt toward growth-oriented ETFs in 2023.
