Fund Description
The fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets (including any borrowings for investment purposes) in the common stocks of companies expected to benefit from the development and use of science and/or technology. While most assets will typically be invested in U.S. common stocks, the fund may invest in foreign stocks, including issuers in emerging markets, in keeping with the fund's objective. It may sell securities for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into more promising opportunities. The fund is non-diversified.
