This fund primarily allocates a substantial portion of its capital, specifically at least 80% of its net assets and any leveraged funds, to common stocks. It maintains a concentrated portfolio, typically holding shares in about 25 to 30 companies that the investment adviser identifies as having strong prospects for sustained long-term earnings expansion. While it has the flexibility to invest across all market capitalizations, its primary focus remains on well-established, large-capitalization companies. The portfolio is predominantly weighted towards U.S. equities; however, it permits an allocation of up to 25% of its assets to international stocks, which can include holdings in emerging markets. Notably, the fund operates as a non-diversified investment vehicle.
