About PLXGX
Virtus KAR Capital Growth Fund Class I is a U.S.-based mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in large-cap growth stocks. The fund seeks to build a concentrated portfolio of 25-50 companies selected for their durable competitive advantages, strong management teams, prudent financial profiles, and consistent growth records. It emphasizes high-quality businesses with solid balance sheets, robust free cash flow, and a proven ability to generate superior returns on capital. The investment approach aims to limit business risk and volatility through rigorous fundamental analysis, favoring firms that require little dependence on external financing and can navigate challenging markets. Managed by Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management, the fund is classified within the large-cap growth category and aligns its strategy with the Russell 1000 Growth Index. Its portfolio is typically dominated by industry leaders in sectors such as technology, consumer discretionary, financial services, and healthcare.
