As market conditions change, the Value Line
Asset Allocation Fund shifts its assets among stocks, bonds and money market securities. And,
unlike many mutual funds, the Fund has no limits on the percentage of assets that can be invested in each class at any given time.
The Value Line Asset Allocation Fund fluctuates around an average mix of 55% stocks, 35% bonds, and 10% money market instruments, including cash.
If conditions are such that interest rates are low, real rates on bonds, net of inflation, are high, and the Value Line stock market model
indicates that equity prices are undervalued, the Fund may increase the percentage of its total assets in stocks.
When economic and market conditions shift so that interest rates are rising, expected total return from equities is poor, real rates on bonds are low, and short-term interest rates are high, the Fund may take a defensive position with more in money market instruments and a smaller mix of stocks and bonds.
