About VMACX
Virtus KAR Mid-Cap Core Fund Class A is a mutual fund that focuses on achieving long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in U.S. mid-cap companies. The fund employs a disciplined, fundamental research process to identify businesses with durable competitive advantages, strong management, financial stability, and consistent growth potential. Key features include a concentrated portfolio of 25-35 high-conviction positions, a lower volatility investment approach, and an emphasis on companies with high returns on capital and robust free cash flow. The fund's sector allocation is notably weighted toward industrials, information technology, financials, and healthcare. Managed by Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management, the fund aims to deliver risk-adjusted returns while capturing the unique growth characteristics of the mid-cap segment, which historically provides a balance between the stability of large-cap and the high-growth potential of small-cap stocks. With several billion dollars in assets under management, the fund plays a significant role for investors seeking quality-driven exposure to the often underrepresented mid-cap equity market.
