Recommended For
This Fund may be suitable for
long-term investors who are
contributing to the growth
component of a diversified
portfolio, want exposure to
the rapidly growing and ever-
changing science & technology
sector and are willing to
accept some short-term
volatility for potentially
higher long-term returns.
Investors in this Fund should
be willing to accept a high
level of risk.
Why Invest
The Fund offers the means to
pursue an
aggressive growth strategy by
adding sector
funds to an existing well-
diversified growth
portfolio.
The Fund offers a way to
invest in industries that are
not yet mature and have
prospects for above-average
growth over the long term.
Portfolio Update
Quarterly Update
On balance, group weightings were the most significant factor in performance results relative to its benchmark, the MSCI All-Country World Index – Information Technology (ND, C$), while stock selection was also beneficial. Strong stock selection and positioning in the semiconductors group led relative contributions. A selective allocation to hardware companies also helped relative performance. Significant exposure and solid stock picks in the telecommunication equipment arena rounded out major relative contributors. Weak selection in media stocks was the greatest detractor from relative results.
