Our read on SXQG

ETF.net Research

In short

CBorn in 2021 as a Wichita advisor's in-house quant model: roughly 80 US stocks screened for profitability and balance-sheet discipline, micro-caps and illiquid laggards cut first. Costs 0.55%, near the going rate for active growth.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks capital appreciation through active investment primarily in equity securities, mainly common stocks. Its quantitative selection process emphasizes companies with comparatively high quality and growth characteristics.

Why people hold it

  • Quality here means numbers: high and improving profitability, low leverage and default risk, and companies funding dividends and buybacks without leaning on new stock or debt.sec.gov
  • The model clears the deck first, cutting stocks under $500 million in size plus weak liquidity and poor 12-month momentum, then builds a concentrated book of about 80 names.sec.gov
  • 0.55% a year, near the typical fee for active US growth funds, with no waiver propping that number up. The fund sits in the upper half of its peer group.
  • Active and all-cap: the screen can reach into mid caps instead of stopping at the mega-cap growth names, which is where most of this category lives.sec.gov

Worth knowing

  • Small fund, light volume. The spread you pay getting in and out can matter more here than the expense ratio.
  • Cheaper competition measured against the same Russell 1000 Growth benchmark: FELG charges 0.18%.
  • Non-diversified by design. With about 80 names and a top-heavy build, individual stocks swing the result more than in a broad index fund.sec.gov
