Contra Funds take a contrarian approach to investing wherein the fund manager bets against the prevailing market trends by purchasing the under-performing / depressed assets. The underlying assumption behind this approach is that in the long-term the asset will stabilise and reach its actual value once the short term risks vanish. Investors of Contra Funds need to be aware that it’s a long term commitment here and they might not able to see any returns if they have short-term goals.
This fund is rated 2 stars by Morning Star Ratings.
