About ANOAX
The American Century Small Cap Growth Fund A Class is a mutual fund that focuses on achieving long-term capital growth by investing primarily in small-cap companies. The fund typically allocates at least 80% of its net assets to small-cap equities, targeting businesses with sustainable, accelerating earnings growth and positive price momentum. Its portfolio is diversified across more than 140 holdings, dispersing risk among a wide range of sectors including industrials, healthcare, technology, and energy. The fund is actively managed, with a strategy designed to uncover promising opportunities by identifying companies poised for above-average expansion. This fund plays a notable role in the financial market by giving investors access to the growth potential of smaller, emerging companies that may be underrepresented in broader market indexes. The relatively higher volatility and risk associated with small-cap stocks are balanced by the potential for capital appreciation, making this fund particularly relevant for those seeking exposure to the dynamic segment of the U.S. equity market. With its disciplined investment process and emphasis on earnings momentum, the American Century Small Cap Growth Fund A Class serves as a key vehicle for investors aiming to capture the long-term advantages of small-cap growth equities.
