How we measure
- Short-term periods are 1M, 3M, 6M. An investment outperformed in a period when its total return, with dividends reinvested, was higher than ATCL's. Returns within 0.5 points or 3% of ATCL's, whichever is larger, count as a tie.
- "Qualified" means outperforming in at least 2 of 3 periods. "All-weather" means outperforming in every long-term period and all but one short-term period.
- Popular alternatives are the funds and stocks most often compared with this one. We include only those that trade today, are not leveraged or inverse, and hold at least $200 million.
- A decline, or drawdown, runs from a peak to the lowest close before the next high. The worst decline ever uses all the price history we have; comparisons between funds use the past 10 years so that younger funds are judged on the same stretch.
- Sector overlap is the share of assets two funds hold in the same sectors. Correlation and the mixed-portfolio figures use monthly returns.
- Figures are computed from daily adjusted prices and update after each trading day. Past performance does not predict future results.
