That has mattered: over the past 2.7 years, funds with this little specialist backing trailed top-rung funds by about 3.8 points 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
TMDIX earns a B grade, ranking 165 of 440 graded funds, with specialist managers showing early conviction in EME and AXON while building a position in INSM. The concern is a 31.6% late-stage weight and five fading positions led by MPWR, CW, and IDXX, where specialists are quietly stepping back.
→ Watch MPWR at 3.6% and CW at 2.7%, where specialist exits signal those positions may have run their course.
→ Note the early positioning in EME and AXON as the clearest evidence of where the fund sees forward opportunity.
