-What’s Hot

  • All funds are growth-style and have a significant exposure to US tech and/or health care.
  • 5 funds here were in the Bottom 10 last month, 3 of these being Morgan Stanley US Growth, Morgan Stanley US Advantage and Baillie Gifford American in the North America sector.
  • The other 2 are Baillie Gifford Health Innovation and Nikko AM ARK Disruptive Innovation, both in the Specialist sector. The latter fund pops up in our “What’s Hot, What’s Not” analysis frequently, for good and bad, so a very volatile fund.

What’s Not

  • 90% of funds are Gold-focussed.
  • Several of these Gold funds were in the Top 10 last month, for example LF Ruffer Gold and Ninety One Global Gold
  • Making up the final bottom spot is an absolute return fund, supposedly a low risk sector, but many funds in the sector take risk more associate with a stock-market linked fund.
