That has mattered: over the past 2.7 years, funds on this rung beat bottom-rung funds by about 3.8 points 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

TLGAX earns a B grade and ranks 93rd out of 440 funds, with specialists holding a meaningful 37.2% share. The concern is that five of its largest positions, including Broadcom at 7.4% and Costco at 5.4%, are in Fading stage, meaning proven specialists are already walking away from those trades.

Watch the combined Fading weight in AVGO, COST, KLAC, APH, and CIEN closely, as specialists leaving five positions signals real repositioning risk.

Note that GEV and VRT sit at Early Conviction stage, small weights but where specialists are genuinely building early conviction ahead of the crowd.
