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.

10,000+ funds tracked · the graded specialists among them drive every read

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

FIUIX ranks first out of 500 graded funds, with specialists holding 42% of the fund and showing early conviction in VZ and small satellite play GSAT. The concern is that nearly 60% sits in late-stage positions, and top holding NEE at 10.9% is actively being exited by those same specialists.

→ Watch NEE closely: at 10.9% of the fund, specialists fading this position makes it the single biggest risk to returns.

→ VZ at 8.2% and GSAT at 0.7% are where specialists are genuinely early, worth tracking as the thesis develops.
