Samco Mid Cap Fund - Regular Growth

Mid Cap companies are the 101^st-250^th companies in terms of market capitalization. Mid Cap Funds are those equity-oriented funds that invest primarily in mid cap companies.

It is a strategy to invest in stocks which are showing relatively stronger momentum. Momentum stocks are such that exhibit positive price momentum – based on the phenomenon that stocks which have performed well in the past relative to other stocks continue to perform well in the future, and stocks that have performed relatively poorly continue to perform poorly. The momentum strategy aims to buy high, sell higher or alternatively aims to cut your losses and hold on to stocks that are relatively performing better.

Momentum works due to behavior biases of the investors in the financial markets. Investors usually are not always rational, they have limits to their control over their emotions and are influenced by their own biases such as loss aversion, regret, anchoring and disposition biases. Because of all these human biases, there exists a potential opportunity in the momentum space which can be assumed to be more consistent and time-tested strategy to make an alpha in the stock market. However, investors should consult their financial advisor before investing.
