- What does VEXRX invest in?
- The objective of this fund is to pinpoint promising small and mid-sized companies that demonstrate strong potential for growth. Due to its concentration on these specific market segments, it typically experiences more volatility and unpredictability compared to equity funds primarily invested in larger, more established corporations. However, the fund endeavors to lessen some of this inherent risk through a dual approach: employing multiple investment advisors who each utilize diverse strategies, and maintaining extensive diversification across over 500 distinct stock holdings. While these measures contribute to reducing the potential for significant swings in this often-dynamic market niche, they do not completely remove all associated risks. This fund can be a beneficial addition to a well-rounded, long-term investment portfolio.
