LSC Australian Resources Hi-Alpha Fund

Investing in Australian resources provides key exposure to the industrialisation of China and other emerging economies – the growth engine of the world for the next decade or so.

BHP and RIO provide some growth attributes, but their sheer size tends to restrict their investment attractiveness to only commodity price leverage. It is the mid-tier and smaller companies that provide a combination of strong growth and commodity exposure.

The LSC Australian Resources Hi-Alpha Fund is an active and high conviction portfolio investing in the mid-tier and smaller companies that provide a combination of strong growth and commodity exposure.

LimeStreet Capital recognises that significant flexibility and active monitoring are the essential ingredients required to produce the strong 12 month returns to-date. As at 31st December 2009, the LSC Australian Resources Hi-Alpha Fund has increased 108.39% in the last 12 months.

As a special offer for InvestSMART subscribers, LimeStreet Capital have reduced the minimum investment amount to $10,000 (normally $25,000) for new investments placed via InvestSMART before 31 Jan 2010.
