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

FSUTX earns an A grade and ranks 4th out of 500 graded funds, with specialists holding 34.6% of the portfolio. The concern is that 62% sits in late-stage positions, and NEE at 12.4% leads a group of five fading names where specialists are clearly stepping back. PPL is one of the few spots where specialists are building early.

→ Watch NEE, DUK, SRE, XEL, and VST closely, as specialists are fading from all five and they total over 32% of the fund.

→ Note the early position in PPL at 3.2% weight, where the evidence suggests specialists are building conviction before the crowd.
