Fund Description

Main investments. Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at the time of investment), in securities of companies in the communications field. The fund may not invest less than 65% of its total assets in the communications field, except as described in the prospectus. The fund normally focuses on the securities of US and foreign companies that are engaged in the research, development, manufacture or sale of communications services, technology, equipment or products. The fund may invest in common stocks and other dividend or interest paying securities, such as convertible securities (both preferred stocks and bonds), bonds and short-term cash equivalents. The fund may invest without limit in stocks and other securities of companies not publicly traded in the United States, including securities traded mainly in emerging markets. The fund may invest in initial public offerings. The fund may also invest in the equity securities of real estate investment trusts (REITs).Management process. The fund seeks to achieve its objective through a combination of long-term growth of capital and, to a lesser extent, current income. In choosing securities, portfolio management emphasizes investments in companies offering products, services and enabling technologies in a wide spectrum from traditional communications to data-centric communications like the Internet and corporate networks. Portfolio management may also consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors that it believes are financially material.Derivatives. The fund may invest in derivatives, which are financial instruments whose performance is derived, at least in part, from the performance of an underlying asset, security or index. In particular, portfolio management may use options contracts to manage risk relative to the fund’s benchmark and for active positioning.The fund may also use other types of derivatives (i) for hedging purposes; (ii) for risk management; (iii) for non-hedging purposes to seek to enhance potential gains; or (iv) as a substitute for direct investment in a particular asset class or to keep cash on hand to meet shareholder redemptions.Securities lending. The fund may lend securities (up to one-third of total assets) to approved institutions, such as registered broker-dealers, pooled investment vehicles, banks and other financial institutions. In connection with such loans, the fund receives liquid collateral in an amount that is based on the type and value of the securities being lent, with riskier securities generally requiring higher levels of collateral.
