That has mattered: over the past 2.7 years, funds with this little specialist backing trailed top-rung funds by about 3.8% per quarter and beat the S&P in only 22% of fund-quarters. If it also charges an active fee, the higher-graded alternatives deserve a look.

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

MXYKX earns a C grade, ranking 283 of 500, with specialist investors holding only 4% of the fund. There are early signals worth watching in KEYS, MTD, and DDOG, but 30.6% of the portfolio sits in late-stage positions, and names like BURL and ALNY show specialists already leaving. Three higher-graded peers exist in this mid-cap growth segment.

→ Monitor BURL and ALNY closely, as specialist investors are actively reducing exposure to both positions.

→ Compare this fund against the three higher-graded mid-cap growth peers before adding new money given the C grade.
