Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q4
The funds investment objective is to provide you with growth of capital.
The fund invests primarily in large and mid-capitalization common stocks selected by its investment adviser for attractive valuations and long-term growth potential, with up to 25% of assets permitted outside the United States. Multiple portfolio managers oversee separate segments of the portfolio, each applying professional judgment to identify and hold securities that meet the adviser's investment criteria. Securities are sold when they no longer appear to offer relatively attractive opportunities.
