Morningstar’s Take by David Kathman, CFA 06-17-15
Vanguard Primecap remains one of the best funds out
there.
Domestic-Stock Fund Manager of the Year after putting
up impressive numbers in 2014. This fund, by far the
largest of the team’s six funds, ranked in the
large-growth Morningstar Category’s top 1% for the
year, and the other five also ranked near the top of
their categories. This fund has not looked nearly as
good in the first half of 2015, landing the category’s
bottom quartile for the year to date as of mid-June and
trailing most of the team’s other funds. That’s no
reason for alarm; this remains a topnotch fund that
more than earns its Morningstar Analyst Rating of
Gold.
recently has been its reliance on large- and mega-cap
stocks, which made up 93% of the portfolio as of
March 31, 2015, well above the 81% large-growth
category average and 62% for the same team’s
Primecap Odyssey Growth POGRX. Big stocks
outperformed smaller ones in 2014, thus giving this
fund a boost. That pattern has been reversed in 2015’s
first half. While some of this fund’s big names have
continued to do well, others have struggled recently
after strong 2014 gains, including top-10 holdings
Amgen AMGN, Texas Instruments TXN, and Microsoft
MSFT. This fund’s $48 billion asset base makes it
difficult to own the smaller health-care and tech
stocks that have been the recent best performers,
such as Seattle Genetics SGEN and Abiomed ABMD,
both top-10 holdings in Odyssey Growth but absent
here.
been its airline stocks, including top-10 holding
Southwest Airlines LUV. These posted big gains in
2014 but have mostly lagged so far in 2015; however,
the managers still like the long-term story here and
have been adding to their airline positions.
this fund’s outstanding long-term record.
