Sector Trading Account (STA)

Since it was launched in 1995, the Sector Trading Account has been our flagship managed account product. Sector Trading Accounts are suited for Aggressive investors with long-term investment time horizons, seeking above-average capital appreciation and are comfortable with volatility. Investing essentially 100% in stock mutual funds (Domestic and Foreign) and specialized sector mutual funds, the Sector Trading Account strives to strategically and tactically allocate assets to maximize return potential given the current market and economic environment. STA seeks to target approximately 85% of the portfolio in Core Stock Asset Classes (Large-cap, Mid-cap, Small-Cap and Foreign (developed & emerging)) and 15% in Sector-Specific funds; up to 20% may be invested in alternative assets.  STA has the flexibility to tactically invest at any given time in all stock asset classes (Large/Mid/Small-cap; Domestic and Foreign (developed & emerging) and styles (Value/Growth/Blend)), as well as bond asset classes (Maturity/Duration, Credit Quality, Domestic & Foreign, etc.) and funds that offer hedging capability (currency, inverse funds and those that can short sell). Negative trends in the stock and bond markets will be considered investment opportunities as well. Income generation is not a priority. Asset Allocation weightings may tactically differ given market conditions.
