About QUASX

AB Small Cap Growth Portfolio Class A is a mutual fund that focuses on investing in U.S. small-cap equities with high growth potential. Its primary aim is long-term capital appreciation, achieved by targeting companies at the lower end of the market capitalization spectrum that are poised for faster-than-average growth in earnings, sales, and cash flow. The fund employs a diversified approach, typically holding a broad mix of 95–125 stocks across various sectors, with more significant weightings in technology, industrials, healthcare, and consumer cyclical companies. This structure allows exposure to up-and-coming industries and young firms that are often less heavily researched by the market, providing greater opportunities for fundamental stock selection. The fund is actively managed by an experienced team aiming to identify unexpected long-term growth opportunities. With a moderate turnover ratio and a focus on small-growth companies, this portfolio plays a key role in providing access to potential high-growth segments of the U.S. equity market, making it a notable option for investors seeking diversification and exposure to dynamic small-cap enterprises.
