Why Diversify your Portfolio in 2018?

While technology, industrials, and cyclicals were the strongest sectors in 2017, we think that it may make sense to diversify into additional areas, such as the health care sector, to protect against the potential of increased volatility in 2018.

Currently, the Fidelity Select Medical Delivery Fund (FSHCX) is the strongest fund in this sector based on its three-month total return. FSHCX holds investments in health care insurance and service companies.

In our view, another excellent investment fund is the Fidelity Select Medical Technology and Devices Portfolio (FSMEX), which primarily invests in companies that manufacture medical equipment and surgical devices. The chart shows that the price consolidated in the last 6 months, however, the current rally can lead to a new breakout, which will likely lead to increased rotation into this sector:
