The fund's name stems from its original mandate in 1967: "the fund's mission was to take a contrarian view, investing in out-of-favor stocks or sectors." This strategy has changed since the 1990s to become a fund focused on growth investing in large companies, and the Contrafund's strong history of growth has led to its being "a stalwart of many 401 plans".
