C000255928 Investment Objective and Strategy
NYLI VP Newton Technology Growth Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Mainstay Vp Funds Trust.
Investment objective
The Portfolio seeks capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
"To pursue its objective, the Portfolio normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in the stocks of growth companies of any size that Newton Investment Management North America, LLC, the Portfolios Subadvisor (the Subadvisor), and an affiliate of BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc., believes to be leading producers or beneficiaries of technological innovation. The Subadvisor views producers of technological innovation as those entities that consistently develop new technologies and set industry standards. The Subadvisor considers beneficiaries of technological innovation to be entities which leverage technological advancements to optimize operations, improve productivity, and achieve competitive advantages. The Subadvisor believes that beneficiaries of technological innovations effectively integrate cutting-edge technologies into their existing frameworks, utilizing them to enhance business processes, customer experiences, and overall performance.
The Portfolio invests principally in common stocks. Up to 25% of the Portfolios assets may be invested in foreign securities, including securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. An issuer is considered to be U.S. or foreign based on the issuers country of risk (or similar designation) as determined by a third party such as Bloomberg. Although a Portfolio will generally rely on an issuers country of risk (or similar designation) as determined by Bloomberg (or another similar third party) when categorizing securities as either U.S. or foreign-based, it is not required to do so. In choosing stocks, the Subadvisor looks for technology companies with the potential for strong earnings or revenue growth rates over time, although some of the Portfolios investments may currently be experiencing losses.
The Subadvisor identifies companies with a strong earnings potential as those companies that it believes can generate profits over time. The Subadvisor identifies companies with the potential for strong revenue growth rates as those companies it believes can generate increased sales over time. The Portfolios investment process centers on a multi-dimensional approach that looks for opportunities across emerging, cyclical or stable growth companies. The Portfolio's investment approach seeks companies that appear to have strong earnings momentum, positive earnings revisions, favorable growth, product or market cycles and/or favorable valuations. The Portfolio also may invest in U.S. dollar-denominated American Depositary Receipts (ADRs). ADRs typically are issued by U.S. banks or trust companies and represent indirect ownership interests in securities of non-U.S.
issuers that are publicly traded in overseas markets. ADRs are traded in the United States on national securities exchanges and in the over-the-counter market, and may be converted into the underlying foreign securities. The Portfolio may purchase ADRs through ""sponsored"" or ""unsponsored"" facilities. A sponsored facility is established jointly by the issuer of the underlying security and a depositary. A depositary may establish an unsponsored facility without participation by the issuer of the underlying security. To the extent such ADRs have similar economic characteristics to stocks of companies as described in the Portfolio's policy with respect to the investment of at least 80% of its net assets, the market value of such ADRs will be included in the 80% calculation. The Portfolio typically sells a stock when the Subadvisor believes there is a more attractive alternative, or there are deteriorating fundamentals, such as a loss of competitive advantage, a failure in management execution or deteriorating capital structure.
The Portfolio may sell stocks when the Subadvisors evaluation of a sector has changed."
