About ALGRX
Alger Focus Equity Fund Class I is an open-end mutual fund that primarily seeks long-term capital appreciation. The fund distinguishes itself by maintaining a concentrated portfolio, typically holding around 50 equities, allowing for greater focus on select companies identified through in-depth fundamental research.

Its top holdings frequently include industry-leading companies demonstrating strong growth potential and innovative business models. The fund may also concentrate its assets in fewer sectors or industries to capitalize on targeted opportunities, resulting in a higher degree of portfolio focus compared to more broadly diversified funds.
