Our read on GTEK
DMost tech funds are a bet on the same handful of giants. GTEK does the opposite: Goldman's stock pickers hunt tech companies worth under $100 billion, anywhere in the world, in a portfolio of roughly 60 names.
The fund is an actively managed, fully transparent ETF seeking exposure to Goldman Sachs's highest-conviction technology ideas. It invests globally in companies below $100 billion in market capitalization, including mid- and small-cap stocks.
Why people hold it
- The size cap is the point: it buys tech companies below $100 billion in market value, so the mega-caps that anchor most tech funds are excluded by design.gsam.com
- It fishes globally across developed and emerging markets, so the shortlist reaches chipmakers and software names listed well outside the US.
- Actively managed and fully transparent, holding about 60 stocks. You see what Goldman's analysts actually picked rather than an index screen's output.
Worth knowing
- At 0.75% a year, it charges more than the typical global active equity fund, and well above rules-based peers such as GSWO at 0.15%.
- It trades thinly next to the big tech funds, so bid-ask gaps can run wider, particularly around the open and close.
- Sub-$100B, one sector, roughly 60 holdings: a concentrated slice of the market, and it has not been run as an income payer.
