II. ETFs Investing Using AlphaProfit Newsletter

III. Sound Mutual Funds and ETFs Investing Strategy
Whether you invest in mutual funds or ETFs, different types of mutual funds and ETFs have different
risk-reward characteristics. The performances of the different types of mutual funds and ETFs correlate differently with the economy.
Sound investing strategy takes both risk and reward potential of the different types of mutual funds and ETFs into account. Investing
across different types of mutual funds or ETFs adds to diversification and helps manage risk.
The amount of dollars you allocate to different types of mutual funds or ETFs depends on your specific situation, including factors such as your investment objective, investment time horizon, and risk tolerance.
AlphaProfit recommends ETFs, Fidelity Select funds, and other sector funds to invest in sectors and industry-groups selected by the ValuM investment process. These recommendations enable you to construct customized
portfolios for managing your domestic equity and specialty portions of your assets.
