FUND DESCRIPTION
|
|
New Century Capital is
dedicated to a philosophy... diversification can reduce risk without
sacrificing performance. The Portfolio's objective is to provide capital
growth and, as a secondary objective, to earn income. New
Century maintains rigorous investment qualifications for the mutual funds in
which it invests: strong performance, reasonable risk-adjusted
returns and consistent management styles. Diversification does not
assure or guarantee better performance and cannot eliminate the risk
of investment loss.
