Should you invest in the Quant Small Cap Fund?

Should you invest in the Quant Small Cap Fund?

The fund has been a remarkable out performer in the last few years. The problem with recommending mutual funds is that sometimes, churn takes place and others which have not performed could well be on top. Having said that we refrain from making any investment calls, given the nature of the mutual fund industry and the volatility in stocks. Some of the top stocks in the portfolio of Quant Small Cap Fund, apart from ITC can give volatile returns. Apart from that the fund has very little exposure to debt. Aalso the markets are reasonably priced in the present context and interest rates are only moving higher.
