How long should I plan to stay invested?
You should think of this as a minimum five-year investment. These sectors can be volatile in the short term, but it is the long-term growth potential that makes them attractive.
What kind of returns can I expect?
While past performance cannot predict future returns, these sectors are chosen for their long-term growth potential. You should expect some volatility, as these are high-risk investments focused on innovative sectors.
I'm new to investing – are these funds too risky for me?
These are high-risk investments, but they can be part of a well-diversified portfolio. The key is to invest only what you’re comfortable with and to understand that there will be ups and downs along the way.
Aren't these sectors quite volatile?
Yes, they can be. That’s why we recommend a minimum five-year investment horizon. While there may be short-term volatility, these sectors are chosen for their long-term growth potential.
What's the biggest risk I should be aware of?
Besides market volatility, these sectors can be sensitive to technological changes and regulatory developments. That’s why diversification and a long-term perspective are crucial.
How are these funds positioned for future growth?
The Sygnia AI Funds range focuses on sectors driving global innovation and transformation. While no one can predict the future, these sectors represent key areas of technological and economic development. These aren’t just short-term trends, they are fundamental shifts in the global economy.
Will new sectors be added to the range?
Sygnia actively monitors global trends and may expand the range as new opportunities emerge in transformative technologies and innovations.
