CHANGING THE WAY WE PAY
The digitization of how we pay for goods and services today has presented the Plumb Funds with an exciting theme in our portfolios. We’re far more intrigued with how people pay than with where they buy or what they are buying. We dig deep into what companies are benefiting from secular changes – what payment systems are leading the pack, who are the processing and security companies behind the scenes and what countries across the globe are making inroads.

As of 03/31/2021, Morningstar rated the Funds as follows: Equity Fund 2, 1, 3 and 2 stars for Overall, 3, 5, and 10 years among 1186, 1186, 1065 and 788 Large Growth Funds; Balanced Fund 4, 4, 5 and 4 stars for Overall, 3, 5 and 10 years among 641, 641, 574 and 412 Allocation-50%to 70% Equity Funds based on risk adjusted returns. The Morningstar RatingTM for funds, or “star rating”, is calculated for mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three, five, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.
The Morningstar Rankings represent a fund’s total-return rank relative to all funds that have the same Morningstar Category. The highest percentile rank is 1 and the lowest is 100. It is based on Morningstar total return, which includes both income and capital gains or losses and is not adjusted for sales charges or redemption fees.
