NEW! Hi-tech investment with unique safety net

TrackerFUNDs.com was quick off the mark last November with their promotion of a new Index fund to track the FTSE techMARK Index. Early bird investors will have been well satisfied by mid March having doubled their money – on paper that is!

The recent and sudden correction serves to confirm the importance of regarding any kind of equity investment as long term. But doubtless there are many people who either are suffering from burnt fingers or will take a while yet to pluck up courage to invest in a sector on which our future prosperity depends.

That’s why we’re shortly to introduce to the new trackerfunds.com website a quite different way to invest in hi-tech. This is for investors who want to profit from the revolution that’s going on right now but are put off because they don’t want to lose money in the short term.

TWO TYPE APPROACH

We think that there are two distinct ways to invest in hi-tech – one which requires a long term approach and the other where you forfeit a portion of the upside on return for protection on the downside.

  1. The long term approach is an Index tracking fund like the Close FTSE techMARK Index Fund and
  2. the cautious route is the new HSBC Safety.net Fund.

This new fund enables you to share in the performance of 20 of the world’s most dynamic hi-tech companies with the added advantage of 90% capital protection.
