Profile: The Al Frank Fund: Barron's just happened to profile one of my favorite value-oriented mutual funds. Fund manager John Buckingham is bullish on the U.S. markets and favors deep-value stocks that trade close to or lower than book value. What I like about this fund is that they were also up in the bear years of 2000 (up 7%) and 2001 (up 30%).
