6 Great Mutual Funds That Benefit From Small Portfolios
FYI: I have always believed for enhanced returns look to funds with focused or concentrated portfolios. That's why I am attracted to sector funds. Regards, Ted http://www.kiplinger.com/printstory.php?pid=12195
I've had mixed results with funds that invest with concentrated portfolios. My investments in Longleaf Partners funds blew up in 2008/2009 [I know, they have bounced back--but I left them for less volatile investments]. And Fairholm is certainly not for the risk-adverse.
These managers make bets that are all-or-nothing, which makes me nervous. [e.g. Fairholm's investment in Sears and Longleaf's investments in GM and Dell].
Ted, I guess I'm just too nervous to invest with these managers. And I don't have your talent for timing or picking the right sectors.
