Recommendation
AVOID
Not worthwhile for most investors. A rating of AVOID is assigned to ETFs with ALTAR Scores in the lowest quintile (the bottom 20%) of their category. Often, funds in this category consist of stocks with little if any history or expectation of profitability, and as a result our fundamentally-driven analysis may be less relevant.
Category Overview
There are 257 funds in the International Equities category, with an average ALTAR Score™
of 7.2% and a standard deviation of
2.5%. EWS's ALTAR Score™ is approximately
1.3 standard deviations
below
the category average. This places EWS in the 11st percentile among funds in the category.
