Investment Strategy
The investment seeks to increase the value of the investment over the long-term ("long-term growth"). The fund primarily invests in common stocks of domestic small, medium- and large-sized companies believed to have growth potential. The adviser believes a company's annual sales volume and market capitalization (the number of shares outstanding multiplied by the per share price) are the factors most illustrative of a company's size. In distinguishing company size in terms of sales volume, the adviser considers a company's sales volume relative to peer companies in the company's industry.
