Resources

Literature for Capital Group U.S. Equity


Figures shown are past results and are not predictive of results in future periods. Current and future results may be lower or higher than those shown. Investing for short periods makes losses more likely.

Composite net returns are calculated by deducting from the monthly ["pure"] gross returns a model fee equivalent to an annual 3% fee. Actual fees will vary. For information concerning program sponsor fees, contact your financial professional.

Investments are not FDIC-insured, nor are they deposits of or guaranteed by a bank or any other entity, so they may lose value.

Data based on Capital Group U.S. Equity SMA composite's representative portfolio, unless otherwise noted.

There have been periods when the results lagged the index(es) and/or average(s). The indexes are unmanaged and, therefore, have no expenses. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Each S&P Index ("Index") shown is a product of S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC and/or its affiliates and has been licensed for use by Capital Group. Copyright © 2025 S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, a division of S&P Global, and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Redistribution or reproduction in whole or in part is prohibited without written permission of S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC.

Portfolios are managed, so holdings will change. Holdings mentioned and their results are not representative of other holdings in the portfolio or the portfolio's results.

Totals may not reconcile due to rounding.

Investment results assume all distributions are reinvested and reflect applicable fees and expenses.

Results and results-based figures shown are preliminary and subject to change.

  1. Strategy assets data represent the sum of all related funds and SMA portfolios as of the parent fund fiscal year-end.
  2. "Pure" gross composite returns do not reflect the deduction of any trading costs, fees or expenses; results would have been lower if they were subject to fees and expenses. (Capital Group U.S. Equity)
  3. Prior to 1989, results were calculated on an equal-weighted basis. (Capital Group U.S. Equity)
  4. Past results are not predictive of results in future periods.
  5. Returns are in USD, are asset weighted, and reflect the reinvestment of dividends, interest and other earnings (net of withholding taxes).
  6. Each SMA composite consists of all unrestricted, discretionary SMA portfolios that are managed according to their investment strategies. Information for the composites is listed below.

    For certain SMA composites, the composite includes all SMA portfolios applicable to its strategy beginning on the composite's inception date.

    - Capital Group U.S. Equity SMA Composite inception: 09/01/2009 (U.S. Equity strategy)

    For certain strategies, results prior to the SMA composite's inception date are based on a different composite since no SMA portfolios were managed according to their investment strategies. Results presented for those are based on returns which contain non-SMA similar strategy portfolios and are described below.

    - U.S. Equity strategy: Capital Group Private Client Services (CGPCS) U.S. Equity Composite inception 10/01/1974 through 8/31/2009

    As of 1/1/2019, only unrestricted portfolios are included in composites. Prior to 1/1/2019, both restricted and unrestricted portfolios were included.
  7. Based on the representative account for the applicable composite. Refer to composite results disclosures for descriptions of fees used to calculate yield measures shown. Defaults by fixed income issuers would result in different, lower realized yields. Past results are not predictive of results in future periods.
  8. Specific individual account holdings may vary. As such, this information is presented for illustrative purposes only.
  9. Accrued income and the timing of its settlement, as well as classification of convertible bonds as debt or equity, can cause slight variations in the balances displayed in different portfolio composition breakdowns.
  10. May include investments in money market or similar funds managed by a third party or similar investments managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates that are not offered to the public.
  11. Capital believes the software and information from FactSet to be reliable. However, Capital cannot be responsible for inaccuracies, incomplete information or updating of the information furnished by FactSet. The information provided in this report is meant to give you an approximate account of the fund/manager's characteristics for the specified date. This information is not indicative of future Capital investment decisions and is not used as part of our investment decision-making process.
  12. Turnover updated quarterly.
  13. YTD (year-to-date return): For the period from January 1 of the current year to the date shown or from inception date if first offered after January 1 of the current year.
  14. When applicable, returns for less than one year are not annualized, but calculated as cumulative total returns.
  15. Reflects current team at the time of publication. Years of experience in industry and Capital Group are as of the most recent year end.
  16. Risk measures net of fees are calculated using the current highest management fee schedule (of any account in the composite) deducted from the gross results, which do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses. Actual fees may vary depending on, among other things, the applicable fee schedule and portfolio size.
  17. Figures include convertible securities. The equity breakdown by revenue reflects the portfolio's publicly traded equity holdings and excludes cash (and fixed income securities, if applicable). Underlying revenue data were compiled by MSCI and account for disparities in the way companies report their revenues across geographic segments. MSCI breaks out each company's reported revenues into country-by-country estimates. MSCI provides revenue data figures based on a proprietary, standardized model. Revenue exposure at the portfolio and index level was calculated by using FactSet, which takes these company revenue exposures and multiplies by the company's weighting in the portfolio and index. In this breakdown, Israel has been included in Europe.
