What is an aggressive growth fund?
An aggressive growth fund is a type of mutual fund that invests primarily in the stocks of rapidly growing, small to medium-sized companies. An aggressive growth fund's objective is to achieve maximum growth. As the name implies, aggressive growth funds are among the most volatile mutual funds – and their value may fluctuate more than that of the average stock fund.

You should remember that, as a rule, it is never a good idea to invest in any fund until you read its prospectus and understand the risks involved.
