Taurus Ethical Fund
Taurus Ethical Fund remains heavily weighted toward quality large-cap names with IT and energy anchoring nearly 30% of the portfolio, positioning it for stability in a market favoring defensives. The recent portfolio churn—exiting commodity and specialty chemical plays while adding renewable energy stocks—suggests the manager is rotating toward sustainability themes while doubling down on established IT and FMCG leaders. This conviction in blue-chip stability paired with emerging exposure to clean energy reflects a cautious yet thematic approach to "ethical" investing.
