FUND SUMMARY 
The investment seeks to increase the value of investment over the long term. The fund primarily invests in common stocks of domestic medium-and large-sized companies having growth potential. It generally considers companies with market capitalizations up to $2 billion as "small," between $2 billion and $10 billion as "medium" and greater than $10 billion as "large." To a lesser extent, the fund may invest in companies with small market capitalizations and looks for established companies with the potential for superior growth in sales and earnings in a diversified group of industries.
