Select Quality Equity Fund (GQEPX) is up 33% in 2024, outpacing the S & P 500's 27% year-to-date total return.
It has also outperformed 99% of funds in its category over the past five years, per Morningstar.
This matches the rest of the firm's fund strategies, GQG portfolio manager Brian Kersmanc told CNBC.
"We focus on this concept of forward quality," Kersmanc explained.
So they're considered that sort of a blue chip, almost widow-and-orphan stock within the portfolio," Kersmanc said.
