About AULRX
The American Century Ultra Fund R Class is a mutual fund focused on providing long-term capital growth by investing primarily in large-cap growth stocks. Managed with a quality-oriented approach, the fund seeks companies believed to have strong potential for increasing value over time, placing an emphasis on individual security selection rather than broad market forecasts. The fund typically holds a concentrated portfolio of companies with better-than-average growth prospects, making it particularly relevant for investors seeking exposure to leading sectors in the U.S. equity market, such as technology, consumer discretionary, and healthcare. Designed primarily for participants in employer-sponsored retirement plans, the R Class shares are distinguished by an ongoing distribution and service fee (12b-1 fee) and do not impose front-end or back-end sales charges. The fund is known for a relatively higher expense ratio compared to indexed alternatives, reflecting its active management and emphasis on research-driven stock selection. As part of the large growth fund category, the American Century Ultra Fund R Class plays a significant role in diversified retirement portfolios, aiming to deliver capital appreciation by targeting market-leading companies in dynamic industries.
