Fidelity Select Funds Based Model Portfolios

Real Portfolios for Real Money

The AlphaProfit Sector Investors' Newsletter offers two sector fund-based model portfolios: Fidelity Core model portfolio and Fidelity Focus model portfolio. The model portfolios use Fidelity Select funds as building blocks. Fidelity Select funds are chosen using AlphaProfit's ValuM Investment Process.

Fidelity Select Funds Based Model Portfolios

"Your skill at choosing funds is very impressive and I appreciate having your assistance in my financial choices."

JG, Montclair, NJ


Both model portfolios are usually fully invested in equity funds and do not market-time. The model portfolios pursue capital appreciation; income is secondary. Tax efficiency is considered in periodic repositioning of the model portfolios.

You can use either or both of the model portfolios depending on the investment objectives of the individual account.
