Investment Style
Style boxes reflect the investment strategies and various types of securities in which the fund intends to principally invest as outlined in the prospectus. A box will be filled in if a fund invests a substantial amount under normal circumstances in that category. Market capitalization represents Nuveen Investments’ standard definitions for the aggregate value of a company or stock. "Large Cap" represents $5 billion and above; "Medium" or "Mid-Cap" represents $1 billion to $5 billion; "Small-Cap" represents less than $1 billion. Style represents the approach to investing. Growth seeks companies with above average earnings growth or potential; Value seeks stocks priced near or below the value of the company’s assets. Blend is a mixture of both value and growth stocks in a fund.
