Jacob Funds Inc. Jacob Forward ETF(AMEX:JFWD)

JFWD seeks long-term capital growth by holding a broad group of US companies that pursue innovative and disruptive technologies through a forward-looking investment strategy. Using this strategy, the fund adviser looks for what it perceived to be strong, forward-looking management teams that can leverage innovative technology. Security selection is based on qualitative and quantitative assessment of companies fundamental prospects, particularly their potential to generate above-average growth rates. The fund may also gain foreign market exposure of up to 25% through the global operations of US companies, either by holding depositary receipts, US-listed foreign companies, or through direct investment. In all, JFWDs strategy is driven by the idea that early-stage, forward-thinking companies are likely to deliver above-average returns.
