Just because that's what funds are currently in HSX, doesn't mean that's how it should be.

Just like in real trading, there's good funds, and bad funds.  It's all relative.  A good fund is one that disciplined about what it holds, with respect to its stated goals.  All those funds that overweight on AVNGR, would be well managed, if it's stated goals were stated as "Overweight on opening Mega Blockbusters".  It would enable people to get in on the big openers without having the capital to buy the stock individually.

If you really want to be "All in" , There at least 2 Funds that ought to be renamed AVNGRFUND PaulBuxton2011 May 05, 23:27

There are 3 funds actually that went 100% Avengers {nm} Razakius May 06, 04:51

....and these are bad strategies? Object of the fund: to maximize profits. Do you have better ideas for short term gains? {nm} Buy StarBond Fund 18 May 06, 06:10

Yes bad strategy for a fund. It's supposed to represent smaller risk than buying the equity directly. elchan May 06, 06:15

Not in HSX. Funds are more about showing new traders how to play, and how different strategies work in action. RogerMore May 06, 07:02

You're right, fund managers shouldn't make risk-free investments that result in colossal gains. In the real world they'd get fired. Roger More May 06, 09:01

Not sure if anyone said it was a bad strategy, until elchan {nm} Razakius May 06, 07:04

It's because 'actually' can mean different things, depending on where it's placed in a sentence RogerMore May 06, 07:27

+1 for proper usage of both imply and infer. Tanker May 06, 07:57

is this correct? RHAWK May 06, 08:04

You are correct, 100%. It is a pet peeve, like nails on a chalkboard. {nm} Tanker May 06, 08:35

J.L. Austin thanks you for your efforts. :) second gary May 06, 08:10

AFRAM is invested in as much Avengers as it could afford. {nm} AFRAMFund May 06, 05:26

As is DISNXFund (nm) DISNXFund May 06, 07:11

Sometimes it comes to timing. Last summer, a lot of mature funds, like EURO and BRITS, had the H$ to max out HPOT8. Tough when it is so Buy StarBond Fund 18 May 06, 07:14

Sorry it took so long to get on board. AFRAM always grew nicely, Today's adjust is perfect excuse to do what I had meant to for weeks. {nm} Ryan_Stewart May 06, 08:53
