About TWEAX
American Century Equity Income Fund A Class is an actively managed mutual fund specializing in large-cap value stocks. Its primary objective is to provide investors with a combination of income and long-term capital appreciation by focusing on established U.S. companies that are considered undervalued or have slower growth compared to peers. The fund typically maintains a portfolio of 50 to 80 holdings, with significant diversification across industries such as healthcare, energy, financial services, and consumer defensives. Prominent positions often include blue-chip names like Johnson & Johnson, JPMorgan Chase, and Exxon Mobil. In addition to traditional equities, the fund also invests in hybrid securities, such as convertible bonds, to enhance income generation and offer an extra layer of downside protection. This conservative, income-oriented strategy positions the fund as a stable choice within the large value category, appealing to investors seeking regular income with a moderate risk profile. The fund's expense ratio is above the category average, reflecting its front-load share class and active management style.
