Actively Managed US Growth Funds
Active funds and ETFs attempt to outpace peers and their relative benchmarks through the active selection and review of securities. These portfolios tend to have higher relative costs compared with passive offerings. Here, we highlight those funds and ETFs that focus on stocks of growth-oriented companies. 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). Often the companies are in rapidly expanding industries.
