Hi Tiger, MGC is the only CE small cap fun I know of. Morningstar rates it only one or two stars I believe. Perhaps this is because small caps have under performed for so many years. Lately its been on a tear. As far as Fidelity sector funds are concerned, I view these as almost indexes for the sectors. There is a lot of turnover of managers in these funds but I still consider them viable investment tools. Think of them as spice for your investment diner table. No I wouldn't make a meal of them but they cover a given sector well and provide a broader exposure with less risk than an individual issue. And with Fidelity you know they are not going to let one of their junior managers do something stupid.They are not perfect by any means but they have the consistency of performance and an army of researchers that back up their managers. You can do a lot worst than these folks believe me. I'm also impressed with Invesco's sector funds. Take a look at their health sector. Don't know about RYDEX except they're coming on. Good luck.
