That has mattered: over the past 2.7 years, funds on this rung beat bottom-rung funds by about 3.8% per quarter, and beat the S&P in 43% of fund-quarters versus their 22%. The evidence argues this fund earns its seat.

The grade scores this fund's specialist share, the slice that overlaps what the top 1% of proven funds are building. We ignore index ballast and names outside our edge on purpose: that slice is small, and it's what decides the outcome.

The read · what to do with it
Evercore Equity Fund grades C, ranking 233 of 500, with specialists holding 35.8% and showing early conviction in NVDA at 9.2% of the portfolio. The concern is that FIX and MS, together nearly 10% of assets, are both in Fading stage as specialists exit. Three higher graded peers in this segment exist.
→ Watch FIX and MS closely, as specialist selling in two positions totaling 9.4% of the fund is a concrete warning sign.
→ Compare this fund against the three higher graded segment peers, since the C grade argues the case for switching.
