It is assumed that it will become a positive factor for the market, which is forced to overcome one difficult obstacle after another. First, the trade war between the United States and China made a good noise, then high-profile investigations in the technology sector, and then Donald Trump’s Twitter storm directed at Russia.

Fortunately, the company simplified the decision by updating its basket to a set of 50 companies, whose sales are expected to grow the most in 2018. Goldman Sachs expects that its index, covering 10 out of 11 major industries, will increase revenue by 15% this year. Compared to median S&P500 (+ 6%).
