Question: I would like to invest in an international fund that covers high tech stocks that is well managed with realistic fees and a good dividend. Is there such a beast?

Answer (By Paul Rickard): A long established fund is the Platinum International Technology Fund. It had really strong performance when it was established, although on a relative basis, it has underperformed over the last couple of years.

If you are interested in a passive fund, ETF Securities Morningstar Global Technology ETF may be of interest. It trades on the ASX under stock code TECH.

Question: Could you research Ramsay Health (RHC)? We bought shares before the reporting session and now are at a loss. I heard Charlie Aitken values them lower than they are now. Roger Montgomery always favoured them.

Answer: This article was published in Switzer Daily. Clearly, Ramsay is now a little out of favour with the market and the short sellers have taken an interest in both it and Healthscope (HSO). I think you will need to be patient in the short term and if you can’t wear the pain, you may need to exit your position.
