HI K, AIM was actually built for cyclical stocks. It has a harder time with positive slope.

There's hundreds of cyclical stocks that are not particularly exciting but financially strong.

We don't need next year's hottest stock with AIM to do well overall.

Part of the analysis of a group of stocks being AIMed as one is that some may be moving individually on the opposite direction of the others. This is why sector funds will most likely over time beat diversified funds when AIMed.

This is also true of why the greater volatility of one stock helps AIM to accomplish its goals. Then it's a "sector of one."
