Which of the following statements about thematic investing is most accurate?
选项：
A.Water funds underperform during economic cycle expansions
B.Clean energy funds outperform during economic cycle contractions
C.Thematic investing is not feasible through passive vehicles like ETFs
解释：
A. Correct because as an opposite example, water funds have a much more stable, regulatory outlook generally underpinned by strong cash flow and cash conversion. Often used as hedges against inflation, they will underperform during expansions in economic cycles when investors rotate towards growth.
B. Incorrect because clean energy tends to be a pro-cyclical growth sector that underperforms when capital spending and the economic cycle contract.
C. Incorrect because thematic investing targets sustainability-aligned themes as a means to construct a portfolio. While often designed around long-term, resource scarcity-oriented themes, such as water or clean energy, thematic funds may also focus on sustainable sectors like healthcare. This approach may be expressed both fundamentally and quantitatively through active quant strategies or more passive vehicles, such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
