Recommendation
SPECULATIVE
Deeply undervalued but risky. A rating of SPECULATIVE is assigned to ETFs with ALTAR Scores in the top quintile (the top 20%) of their category, indicating exceptional appreciation potential. However, often these are narrowly-focused funds or in industries with structural issues, which may also make them very risky. Nonetheless they may still be useful as part of a well-diversified portfolio.
Category Overview
There are 344 funds in the Global Equities category, with an average ALTAR Score™
of 3.9% and a standard deviation of
5.0%. HERO's ALTAR Score™ is approximately
1.0 standard deviations
above
the category average. This places HERO in the 83rd percentile among funds in the category.
