Mutual Fund · Currency in USD · Last updated Jun 23, 2026

The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in dividend paying common stocks of medium-capitalization companies (which are companies with a typical capitalization range of between $5 billion and $12 billion at the time of investment) and large-capitalization companies (which are companies with a typical capitalization range greater than $12 billion at the time of investment). It may invest up to 30% of its assets in foreign securities.

ENHNX's Sharpe Ratio of 1.26 indicates that for each unit of volatility, it generates 1.26 units of excess return above the risk-free rate. The ratio is calculated using historical daily returns over the past 12 months (as of Jun 23, 2026).

Sharpe uses total volatility (standard deviation) which includes both upside and downside price movements, making it useful for comparing risk-adjusted returns across different assets. For how to read this number and when it can mislead, see Sharpe Ratio Explained.
