Small Growth Funds
Small-growth funds invest in companies that are projected to grow faster than other small-cap stocks. Stocks in the bottom 10% of the capitalization of the U.S. equity market are defined as small cap. Growth is defined based on fast growth (high growth rates for earnings, sales, book value, and cash flow) and high valuations (high price ratios and low dividend yields).
