It's an interesting concept. Though tracking 150 stocks, mostly US, can be done more easily now than in the past.

I know nothing about most of them but 2 jumped out, a Brookfield and a Nissan subsidiary funds, fleas upon fleas I hope not. As they are predominantly US I believe that if you take the hype of smaller companies doing a catch up this year it makes some sense.
