Meridian Score

4.0 out of 10 · Average

Each metric is measured against the company's own sector, then ranked across every rated stock. How it works

The six fund grades

Cost
Cost is the expense ratio — the slice of your money the fund takes every year, whether it does well or badly.
3.8
Holdings
Holdings is the Meridian look-through: we score the companies the fund actually owns, position by position, and weight them the way the fund does.
N/A
Trend
Trend is the fund's total return over the last year, dividends included.
3.2
Risk
Risk is how much the fund's price has actually moved about over the past year — its realized volatility.
9.9
Liquidity
Liquidity combines how large the fund is with how much of it changes hands on a normal day.
8.6
Income
Income is what the fund actually paid out over the last twelve months, as a yield on today's price.
8.7
