Summary

Lord Abbett Growth Equity’s aggressive, momentum-driven approach can leave investors exposed when market leadership shifts. The strategy—available through a US mutual fund and separate account, as well as an Ireland-domiciled vehicle—leans heavily on fast-growing companies and technical signals, resulting in pronounced performance swings and an uneven long-term record relative to its benchmark.
