While the Fund delivered positive absolute returns, it underperformed the S&P 500 ® ® The Fund, given its mid-cap focus, did not own any of the mega-cap stocks i.e., the largest of the large-cap stocks, that drove the two strongest sector of the S&P 500 ® These detractors were partially offset by effective stock selection in the industrials sector, which contributed positively. Having underweighted allocations to real estate and materials—the two weakest sectors in the S&P 500 ® During the semiannual period, the Fund’s relative results were hurt most by not owning NVIDIA, whose shares rose approximately 150% during the semiannual period.

The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investment, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than its original cost. The performance data includes reinvestments of all dividends and distributions but does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.</p> | |
