@David_Snowball,
Thank you for clarifying the reason for the sale. I forgot about the April article.
For some reason the above link is not working, so I will attempt it again,

@VintageFreak,
Not sure it this FT article and citywire articles address the specific reasons, but it does generalize some of the reasons for the acquisition.

It will be fantastic to see a chronically lying narcissistic pompous individual out on his keister because of his failure to deal with the pandemic. The sorrow is people had to die because of his ineptness.
Maybe he can inject some draino into his…
The purpose of wearing masks and social distancing is to protect yourself from catching the virus and protecting others from getting the virus from others who are possibly infected. People need to keep that in mind.

@VintageFreak,
The new name of the funds is listed above in my first post. A registration filing for the new funds is in my second post. The "I" class shares require $1,500 initial investment, the same as FPA Funds.
The May 1 prospectus reflects the total assets that you calculated. I was not able to find anything on T Rowe's website concerning the reopening Mid-Cap Value fund reopening, but it may be posted there tomorrow or the next day.

Tough choice, but isn't LLSCX more mid-cap blend, while Vulcan small cap is more small cap blend? Guess it depends what you are looking for?
I do own Vulcan Value Small Cap fund.
@Crash,
Sorry for his exclusion. I know of two candidate running presently as our primary is next month. If he has some good plans, I may consider him. I'm open minded.

You live in a country that has the freedom to select whoever you like by means of an election.
You are entitled to your beliefs and ideas. As I indicated earlier, I know Biden has some issues also, but the decision is up to each voter thi…
Apparently you are supporting Trump? But then again that is your choice and you can since you have the freedom to select whoever you want.
He has shown he is not open minded and narcissistic. My sight is not weak in that regard.
I have some issues with Biden as well, but if I had to make a choice between only two people running for office of who best represents my interest and others, I would take Biden hands down. Not that it has any influence, but I have voted Republican…

T Rowe Price website indicates that the fund is closed to new investors.
"PRIDX is closed to new investors."
On a couple of tv stations, local news or CNBC, his press entourage said that his comment was "taken out of context" and it was also said he was "joking". Ironically, he is the joke.
Looks like Trump has been tanning too much with the raccoon eyes from wearing his sunglasses. Maybe that it is how he thinks he is immune to getting Covid-19.
@Crash
Maybe with brokers like Schwab, Firstrade, or some other brokerages share classes do not mean anything, but when you try to buy a certain fund class with the transfer agent, it means everything. I couldn't buy the "Y" class of Madison had …
