About PEQRX

Putnam Large Cap Value Fund Class R is an actively managed mutual fund designed to achieve capital growth and current income by investing primarily in common stocks of large U.S. companies.

Its portfolio typically emphasizes sectors such as financial services, consumer defensive, energy, healthcare, and technology, counting names like Citigroup, Philip Morris International, Exxon Mobil, and Microsoft among its top holdings. The strategy involves investing at least 80% of assets in large-cap companies, aligning closely with benchmarks like the Russell 1000 Value Index.
