I believe the amount is tied to what is equal to an deductible/non-deductible retirement account. I believe it was $6K initially. Maximum investment amount initially advertised was $100K, but due to overwhelming interest, maximum investment was lo…
@LewisBraham,
You are right about that one as I do own it. However, the AUM is significantly larger than GPMCX; even METAX has low AUM and higher expenses.
@Ted,
High ER's are typical of small funds with small amounts of AUM. Another issue is the fund is closed to new investors, so there is a small asset base in which they can receive funds from. I am continuing to put in a small amount per month fo…

I bought into PROVX about 9 months ago. Was part of the FMI Fund family until October 2013 when it was reorganized some years ago (believe the fund was sub-advised back then by the current management team). Prefer it more so than FPACX as it has g…

North Star has also a micro cap value fund, NSMVX. However, I agree with Lewis on Thomson Horstmann & Bryant Microcap fund and Wasatch Micro Cap Value Fund.
METAX is another micro cap value fund to look at.

@msf,
At least the newsletter gave us some possibilities as to why the remaining splits have not occurred. It is more information than we received from Fidelity.
@randynevin,
I saw several remaining funds were due to split June 8 and still have not split. Here is the Fido webpage:

FSCSX also had a stock split.

@BenWP,
Just bought into the fund this past January as I did look at the past history with not much indicated. At $55 dollars a share, $2,500 doesn't buy much. I do have it in a taxable account with the transfer agent.
Most of my mid-cap holdi…
@AndyJ
Thanks for the info. I still have SPFLX with TDA, but I am not sure if I can add to my existing position. May look at the investor class as an option.
I own It also. Bought it through Scottrade before they deemed it an Advisor Class fund and raised the initial minimums resulting from American Beacon acquiring the fund. Be interested in what other brokerage is offering it to retail customers for …
