01Returns screener

Point-to-point returns as of the latest NAV. Periods under a year are absolute; one year and longer are CAGR. Shading shows the quartile within the fund's category. Tick funds to send them to Compare.

02Rank history and consistency

The fund's quartile in its category at every quarter-end, ranked on its trailing 1-year return over the last 5 years. Each square is a quarter-end, oldest on the left: Q1 top 25% → Q4 bottom 25%, grey not ranked. Streak counts quarter-ends in a row, up to today, in the top half. Set your own idea of a consistent fund below; every section then shows only the funds that pass.

03Compare

Up to 8 funds side by side. Every number here is measured over the same period for every fund, so a young fund can be compared fairly with an old one. Tick funds in any table, click dots on the capture chart, or search below. Use Enlarge on any chart to open the chart studio, where you can place up to four charts side by side.

04Quartile ranks

Quartile within category for every period, plus how often the fund lands in the top half. Q1 is the best 25% of the category. A fund with fewer than four peers still gets a quartile, so check the peer count.

05Rolling returns

Every rolling window ending in the observation period, sampled weekly. Shows how wide the range of outcomes was, not just the latest number. Windows of one year or longer are annualised.

Reading capture

Up capture is how much of the benchmark's rising months the fund kept. 110% means it rose 1.1 times as much on average.
Down capture is how much of the falling months it took. 70% means it fell only 0.7 times as much. Lower is better.
Up ÷ down above 1 means the fund kept more of the rallies than of the falls. Hybrid and multi-asset funds usually sit well below 100% on both, so compare them with each other, not with equity funds.
The top-left corner of the chart is where you want a fund to sit. Click any dot to add the fund to Compare.
