A quick definition of common-stock fund:

A common-stock fund is a type of mutual fund that invests only in common stocks. A mutual fund is like a big pool of money that many people contribute to, and a professional manager uses that money to buy stocks, bonds, or other investments. Common stocks are shares of ownership in a company, and when you invest in a common-stock fund, you own a small piece of many different companies. Common-stock funds can be risky because the value of the stocks can go up or down, but they also have the potential for high returns.

A more thorough explanation:

A common-stock fund is a type of mutual fund that invests only in common stock. A mutual fund is an investment company that pools money from many investors to buy a diversified selection of securities. Common stock represents ownership in a company and typically offers higher potential returns but also higher risk compared to other types of securities.

For example, if you invest in a common-stock fund that focuses on technology companies, the fund will buy shares of various technology companies such as Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon. As the value of these companies' stocks increase, the value of the mutual fund's shares will also increase. However, if the value of these stocks decreases, the value of the mutual fund's shares will also decrease.

Common-stock funds are suitable for investors who are willing to take on higher risk in exchange for potentially higher returns. They are not suitable for investors who are risk-averse or looking for a steady income stream.
