Fund Details
Investment Thesis
VOT owns the companies that graduated from small-cap growth and haven't yet hit the law of large numbers — historically fertile ground for multi-year compounders. Its modest +7.1% year against mid-cap value's surge illustrates the current style rotation; these cycles alternate, which is the argument for holding the fund through them rather than chasing whichever half just won.
Who It's For
Growth investors who want expansion-stage companies without mega-cap concentration, willing to hold through style rotations like the present one.
