About ANOCX

American Century Small Cap Growth Fund C Class is an open-end mutual fund managed by American Century Investment Management. Its primary objective is long-term capital growth, achieved by investing predominantly in equities of U.S. small-cap companies that show strong growth characteristics. The fund targets businesses across a diverse range of sectors, focusing on those within the market capitalization range of the Russell 2000 Growth Index. It employs a bottom-up, fundamental research process to identify companies with accelerating earnings growth and positive price momentum. The portfolio typically holds a broad mix of aggressive growth stocks in emerging industries or early growth stages, which can lead to heightened volatility compared to larger, more established firms.
