Its portfolio is relatively concentrated, with a significant portion of assets held in its top holdings, many of which are in technology and consumer cyclical sectors. The fund is suitable for investors seeking exposure to the small-growth segment of the U.S. equity market and is managed by a team at Morgan Stanley Investment Management.
