Its character
The currency-hedged twin of the global technology fund: same concentrated tech exposure, led by a handful of giant US names, but built to remove the effect of currency swings.
What to keep in mind
Concentrated in one sector and a few large companies; hedging removes most currency swings, leaving the sector's ups and downs.
