Strategy Overview
Objective
The Congress Large Cap Growth ETF (the “Large Cap Fund” or “Fund”) seeks long-term capital growth.
Investment Strategy
The Fund invests in companies that we believe are experiencing or will experience earnings growth. We employ a “bottom-up” approach to research and stock selection, emphasizing a company’s fundamentals and prospects instead of timing significant economic or market cycles.
