About PPSRX

Principal LargeCap Value Fund III R-5 Class is an open-end mutual fund that aims to achieve long-term capital growth by primarily investing in equity securities of large-cap U.S. companies that are considered undervalued relative to their fundamentals. The fund typically allocates at least 80% of its assets to these large-cap value stocks and may also invest in mid-cap equities and, selectively, in other investment companies such as ETFs. Its investment approach focuses on identifying companies with strong potential for earnings or growth but trading at attractive prices, often characterized by low price-to-earnings ratios and higher dividend yields. The fund is actively managed by a seasoned team and benchmarks its performance against the Russell 1000 Value Index, reflecting its emphasis on established corporations in sectors such as financials, energy, consumer staples, and communication services. With a significant asset base, the fund holds a diversified portfolio, where the top ten holdings represent a relatively modest portion of total assets, promoting diversification and risk mitigation. It serves as a core holding for investors seeking exposure to value-oriented large-cap U.S. equities as part of a broader portfolio strategy.
