Portfolio
Sector funds focus their entire portfolio on one particular sector such as banking, infrastructure, or pharmaceuticals. These funds can have very high concentration in their top few stocks. A sector fund can deliver outsized returns compared to the market when the sector is in market favour during a rising market. These funds can be prolonged underperformers if markets dont pick up the theme or if the sector is going through a bad patch. These funds require well-timed entry at the low point and an exit at the high point in order to see returns.
Sector funds suit investors with very high risk appetites, and who have the knowledge and ability to track sector performance.
