Fund Description
The fund was incepted in March 1948 and is managed by Franklin Advisers. The objective of this fund is to seek capital appreciation. The fund invests most of its assets in equity securities of companies that emphasize scientific or technological development or that are in fast-growing industries. The fund's manager searches for industry leaders and companies that it believes have a competitive advantage due, for example, to their state-of-the-art products or technologies. While companies that meet these criteria are often considered to be growth stocks, the manager also invests in these companies when their stock price are considered undervalued. The fund offers dividends and capital gains at least annually, but there is no guarantee that it would pay.
