About ASVHX
The American Century Small Cap Value Fund is a mutual fund focused on providing long-term capital growth by investing primarily in value stocks of small-cap companies across the United States. The fund targets firms within the market capitalization range of widely recognized small-cap benchmarks, such as the S&P Small Cap 600 and the Russell 2000 Index. Its portfolio spans diversified sectors, including financial services, energy, consumer cyclical, industrials, and technology, enabling broad exposure to the small-cap segment of the market. The fund’s investment approach emphasizes companies with lower price-to-book ratios and more modest growth expectations, aiming to identify undervalued opportunities. Under normal conditions, at least 80% of its net assets are dedicated to small-cap companies, supporting its objective of capturing growth potential within this dynamic segment. While the primary goal is capital appreciation, income generation is a secondary consideration. The American Century Small Cap Value Fund holds a significant presence among small-cap value offerings, catering to investors seeking consistent exposure to smaller, potentially undervalued U.S. companies.
