Yes, you can invest in sectors of the market or indices or other types of "groupings" by investing in either mutual funds or in ETF's.
You would start by looking into the types of funds available either on yahoo/finance or msn/cnbc/moneycentral....click of Mutual funds...or ETF's
I think they both have " introductions" which might explain what you're looking for.

Don't invest anything until you've done research. If this is where you're going to get quick answers, you're going to lose your shirt. I think you should invest in mutual funds, not stocks if you're looking to invest in a "sector". Try looking into Fidelity's Select funds for starters... Honestly, you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't do your homework.

Sure, there are piles of mutual funds and ETFs that do this very thing. Check out the sector/industry tab on the ishares link below. Powershares is another and there are more.

You can either make a position in ETF (exchange traded fund) or in derivative where futures contract is traded.
