The fund primarily invests in common stocks and focuses on blue chip growth companies. Blue chip growth companies are firms that, in the investment advisers view, are well established in their industries and have the potential for above-average earnings growth. The fund focuses on companies with leading market positions, seasoned management, and strong financial fundamentals. The funds investment approach reflects the belief that solid company fundamentals (with emphasis on the potential for above-average growth) combined with a positive industry outlook may result in a higher stock price. Some of the companies the adviser targets for the fund should have good prospects for dividend growth. At times, the fund may have a significant portion of its assets invested in the same economic sector, such as the information technology sector. The fund is nondiversified, which means it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer than is permissible for a diversified fund.
