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

Marsico Global Fund ranks 9th out of 500 graded funds with an A grade and 73.5% specialist ownership, which is a strong signal of conviction. The early position in Costco stands out, while Netflix and Boeing are both Fading, meaning specialists are already heading for the exits on those two names.

→ Watch the Netflix and Boeing positions closely, as specialist exits from Fading stocks often precede broader price weakness.

→ Note that Goldman Sachs and SAP are Crowded trades, suggesting limited upside from specialist-driven momentum in those names.
