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
Tocqueville earns a C grade, ranking 188 of 500, with specialists owning about 40% of the fund. The early story here is RKLB at nearly 7% and NVDA at 5%, both in Early Conviction stage, but that positive is weighed down by Fading positions in VRT, CAT, NEE, and WMT adding up to over 12% of the portfolio.
→ Watch the combined Fading weight in VRT, CAT, NEE, and WMT closely, as specialists are actively leaving those four positions.
→ Compare this fund against the three higher graded peers in the same segment, especially given the drag from 17.7% late stage weight.
