FUND SUMMARY 
The investment seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation. The fund normally invests at least 65% of assets in mid- and large-capitalization stocks of U.S. companies that are reasonably valued and have strong earnings potential. The advisor seeks to maintain sector concentrations that approximate those of the Russell 1000 Growth index; it also seeks to diversify the fund by spreading investments over a broad range of industries. It may also invest up to 10% of assets in American depositary receipts.
