FUND SUMMARY 
The investment seeks capital appreciation. The portfolio normally invests at least 80% of total assets in the securities of smaller companies with market values under $2.5 billion. It will not sell positions just because their market values have increased. The portfolio will add to positions in a company within the limits stated even though its market capitalization has increased through appreciation beyond $2.5 billion, if, in the advisor's judgment, the company is still an attractive investment.
