About DCUCX

DWS CROCI U.S. Fund – Class C is an open-end mutual fund dedicated to pursuing long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in U.S. large-cap equities. The fund leverages the proprietary Cash Return on Capital Invested (CROCI) strategy, which systematically selects companies demonstrating strong economic value based on the CROCI Economic P/E metric—a distinct valuation approach designed to provide deeper insight into a company’s ability to generate cash returns relative to its invested capital. The portfolio is diversified across sectors such as communication services, technology, healthcare, financials, and industrials, with notable holdings in leading companies like Alphabet, Apple, and JPMorgan Chase & Co. Managed by DWS Group, the fund typically maintains at least 80% exposure to U.S. common stocks, identifying candidates from a broad universe of large-cap firms under CROCI research coverage. Class C shares feature level-load fee structures, with a notable focus on ongoing expenses rather than front-end sales charges. This class is tailored for investors seeking an actively managed, quantitatively driven U.S. equity portfolio with annual dividend distributions and a moderate turnover rate.
