SGI Prudent Growth Fund (SGPGX)

Overview

The fund is a financial instrument that primarily focuses on investing in equity securities, with a significant emphasis on common stocks originating from U.S. issuers that are classified as having small market capitalizations. It is committed to allocating at least 80% of its net assets, which also accounts for any borrowings made for investment purposes, towards these small-cap entities. The criterion for identifying what constitutes a small market capitalization issuer is based on comparisons with the market capitalizations of companies listed in the Russell 2000® Index at the time of the fund's investment. This approach aims to capitalize on the growth potential of these smaller companies.
