Fund of the Week: Jupiter Growth & Income

Investors have been on tenterhooks as they await what they hope will be a credible eurozone plan. Markets have bounced over the past couple of weeks, and they've now begun to rally after the key announcements from Brussels.

Optimism may indeed now return, but I think a sense of perspective is important here. We all have to realise that growth is likely to be slow, as reducing the enormous Western debt pile is going to be a long, difficult process.

In such an environment, I believe a strategy that focuses on dividend-paying companies is going to be important in terms of producing positive future returns. Jupiter Growth & Income offers a compelling mix of capturing growth and finding income, making it my pick for Fund of the Week.
