3 Top Large-Cap Growth Mutual Funds to Add to Your Portfolio
Read MoreHide Full Article
Large-cap funds are ideal investment options for those seeking a high return potential accompanied by lower risk than small-cap and mid-cap funds. These funds have exposure to large-cap stocks with a long-term performance history, assuring more stability than what mid or small caps offer.
Additionally, growth funds focus on realizing an appreciable amount of capital growth by investing in stocks of firms, the value of which is projected to rise over the long term. However, relatively higher tolerance to risk and the willingness to park funds for the longer term are necessary when investing in these securities. This is because these may experience relatively greater fluctuation than the other fund classes.
