Market Cap and Style
Market Cap and Style
Shows a fund’s primary equity style (growth, value, or blend) and primary market capitalization (large, mid, or small). Growth stocks are companies whose earnings are expected to grow at an above-average rate relative to the market. Value stocks are companies that trade at a lower price compared to the market average, as measured by valuation ratios that compare the stock’s price to the company’s earnings and growth trends. Market capitalization is a measure of the size of the companies held in the fund, calculated by multiplying a company’s total outstanding shares by the stock price. Market cap ranges change as stock market valuations shift over time. In general, market cap ranges of approximately $1-5 billion represent small cap stocks, $5-15 billion represents mid cap stocks and greater than $15 billion represents large cap stocks. Funds may hold securities that fall into different market cap ranges. See the prospectus for more details.

Fund Overview
Thrivent Mid Cap Value Fund seeks long-term capital growth.
This fund looks to provide investors with consistent, competitive performance through favorable stock selection while monitoring risk. The Fund typically invests in a “value” stocks. Value stocks are companies that trade at a lower price compared to the market, as measured by valuation ratios that compare the stock’s price to the company’s earnings and growth trends. Mid-sized companies may be more established than small companies but have the opportunity to experience faster growth as they seek to become large-cap companies. However, they typically have greater risk than larger, more-seasoned companies.
The portfolio management team seeks to add value through stock selection and active management. The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of value stocks with improving or positive outlooks relative to market expectations. The process begins with idea generation and screening to identify stocks that have certain characteristics. The team uses fundamental, quantitative and technical investment research techniques to seek to identify and purchase mid-sized companies that are in industries with good economic outlooks and that have strong prospects for growth in their sales and earnings. They also seek to identify companies with high-quality management teams and strong financial positions, and monitor risk in an effort to build a well-diversified portfolio.
Medium-sized companies often have greater price volatility, lower trading volume, and less liquidity than larger, more established companies. The Fund’s value is influenced by factors impacting the overall market, certain asset classes, certain investment styles, and specific issuers. The Adviser's assessment of investments may prove incorrect, resulting in losses or poor performance. These and other risks are described in the Fund's prospectus.
