Aggressive growth fund

A mutual Fund which aims for the highest Capital gains and is not Risk-averse in ITS selection of investments. Aggressive growth funds are most suitable for investors willing to Accept a High risk-return trade-off, since many of the companies which demonstrate high Growth potential can also show a Lot of Share price Volatility. Aggressive growth funds tend to have a very large positive Correlation with the stock Market, and so they often produce very good results during Economic upswings and very bad results during economic Downturn. An Aggressive growth fund might, for example, Buy initial Public offerings (IPOs) of stock from small companies and then resell that stock very quickly in Order to generate big Profit. Some Aggressive growth funds may even invest in Derivative, such as Option, in Order to increase their gains.
