  • I am a share holder. The funds recent reports suggested that the GARP(growth at reasonable price) has not been recently successful in the marketplace but they believe it will work out eventually. Perhaps some can clarify whether other GARP funds have done relatively well recently which could mean that the Acorn people are indeed not doing a good job

    I believe POAGX is described as using a GARP. GARP seem like a different way of identifying value.

  • 401-k recently announced that ACRNX would be removed from plan & replaced. I gave up on it a few years back as I was cutting equity % age.
