INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
NA
The investment seeks growth of capital. The fund invests primarily in common stocks and seeks to invest in companies that appear to offer superior opportunities for growth of capital. It may invest a portion of its assets in securities of issuers domiciled outside the United States.

Under this approach, the portfolio of the fund is divided into segments managed by individual counselors who decide how their respective segments will be invested.
