Long-Term Capital Appreciation

Definition

Long-term capital appreciation describes the increase in the value of an asset over an extended period. This investment objective prioritizes growth in asset value over several years, rather than short-term gains or income generation. Investors typically hold assets for a significant duration, expecting their market price to rise due to underlying economic growth, technological advancements, or increased demand. It is a common goal for strategic investments in growth-oriented assets.
