Quartile rankings and new features
globefund.com recently launched three new features that make it easier for you to see how your funds are performing.
How are your funds performing against their peers? The new Quartile Rankings report measures how well a fund has performed against all other funds in its asset class. Mutual funds with the highest percent returns are assigned to a quartile of 1, whereas those with the worst returns are assigned a quartile of 4.
Are your funds up or down today? The daily change and daily percentage change on the Standard and Short-term fund reports are now presented in green if the fund has gained and red if the fund has declined in price since the previous day's close. The colours make it easy to see at a glance how a fund is currently performing.
Star Gazing The Fund Filter now allows you to filter based on Globefund's 5-star rating. View a report of all the Globefund 5-star funds.
