What changed recently

  • Over the three months to Jul 31, 2026, investors added a net $79.5M (creations minus redemptions, per the N-PORT report).
  • Monthly total returns reported for that quarter: +15.87%, +5.95%, -28.16%.

How it works

PTF is an index fund. It tracks the Dorsey Wright Technology Technical Leaders Index, which is built by Dorsey, Wright & Associates. The index starts with 2,000 of the largest companies in the Nasdaq US Benchmark Index. It then keeps technology businesses such as hardware, software, internet, semiconductor and wireless companies. Each stock gets a "momentum" score. The score compares its intermediate and long-term price moves with a market benchmark and with the other eligible stocks. Momentum is the tendency of recent winners to keep outperforming for a while. At least 30 stocks with the highest scores make the cut.

Stocks are weighted by momentum score, not by company size. Higher scores get bigger weights. That is why AXT (4.71%) outweighed Advanced Micro Devices (3.18%) as of July 31, 2026. The fund uses "full replication": it generally owns every stock in the index in the same proportions.

The index is reselected often, so the fund trades a lot. Portfolio turnover was 217%, roughly like replacing the whole portfolio twice in a year. Momentum can reverse quickly, and the fund generally won't sell a fading stock until the index drops it. The fund uses no leverage or options, and it held no derivatives as of July 31, 2026.

What it really costs

  • PTF charges 0.6% a year, versus an average of 0.24% for the similar funds below (7th of 7, cheapest first).
  • Of that, 0.5% is the management fee; the rest covers other fund expenses.
  • The fee includes a 0.09% waiver from the adviser, which may end.
  • Using the prospectus's standard example, $10,000 invested would cost about $61 in the first year and $841 over 10 years (assuming a 5% annual return).

In a retirement portfolio

RoleSatellite (higher risk)

PTF is a concentrated, momentum-driven bet on technology stocks, and its history shows deep drops and no income.

PTF could add a concentrated bet on technology momentum next to a broader core holding. Expect a rough ride. It fell 54.5% in the 2008 crisis and took about 51 months to recover. Its deepest drop, 55.4%, lasted from July 2007 to November 2008 and was not fully regained until May 2013. It lost 34.6% in the 2020 crash but recovered in about 2.4 months. It fell 38.1% in 2022 and needed about 17 months to recover. Its worst calendar year was 2008, at -41.1%. Someone forced to sell shares in a year like that could lock in deep losses. It paid no distributions in the year to October 27, 2026, so it provides no income. Its 0.60% expense ratio is the highest in its comparison group. Past results don't predict the future, and a plan should look at the whole portfolio, not one fund.

Who it may suit — and who should look elsewhere

May suit

  • Investors who want a small, higher-risk slice of US tech chosen by price momentum rather than company size.
  • Holders who can live with swings like the 55.4% fall from 2007 to 2008 and a 1-year beta of 2.85.
  • People who accept 217% turnover and a 0.60% fee for a rules-based strategy that rotates into recent tech leaders.

Look elsewhere if

  • Retirees who need portfolio income: PTF made no distributions in the year to October 27, 2026.
  • Cost-focused investors: XLK charges 0.08% and SOXX 0.35%, compared with PTF's 0.60%.
  • Anyone who may need to sell in a downturn: recovering from 2022's 38.1% drop took about 17 months.

Questions investors ask

How has PTF performed over the long run?

PTF's long-run returns have been strong but very uneven. Its prospectus shows average annual returns of 19.26% over 10 years, 10.33% over five years and 5.53% over one year, all as of December 31, 2025. Year-to-year results swing widely: 81.98% in 2020, -31.73% in 2022 and 43.70% in 2024. Based on price, the fund was up 41.7% year to date through October 27, 2026, which is not a full year.

What is the PTF expense ratio?

PTF's expense ratio is 0.60%, according to its prospectus filed August 27, 2026. That includes a 0.50% management fee. It is the highest of the seven funds in its comparison group, where the average is 0.24% and XLK charges 0.08%. In the SEC's standard example, a $10,000 investment earning 5% a year would cost about $61 after one year, $366 after five years and $841 after ten. Trading costs from its 217% turnover are not included in that ratio.

Does PTF pay dividends?

No. PTF made no distributions in the 12 months to October 27, 2026, so its trailing yield was 0%. The fund picks technology companies for price momentum, not for dividends. Any return comes mainly from changes in the share price. Investors who rely on regular portfolio income could compare it with funds built around dividends or bonds.

PTF vs SOXX: what's the difference?

SOXX, the iShares Semiconductor ETF, is a chip-stock fund. PTF picks about 37 technology stocks by momentum and weights them by momentum score. Their holdings overlap by about 28%, the most of any similar fund. SOXX costs 0.35%, compared with PTF's 0.60%. It is also far larger: $47.8 billion in net assets as of June 30, 2026, against PTF's $582.5 million as of July 31, 2026. SOXX returned 54.9% over one year as of October 30, 2026. PTF returned 32.5% over one year as of October 27.

What are PTF's top holdings?

As of July 31, 2026, the five largest of PTF's 37 holdings were Western Digital (4.99%), Micron Technology (4.93%), AXT (4.71%), Seagate Technology (4.42%) and Sandisk (4.27%). The rest of the top 10 were KLA, TeraWulf, Dell Technologies, Advanced Micro Devices and Teradyne. Together, the top 10 made up about 40% of assets. The index reselects stocks by momentum and turnover was 217%, so this list can change sharply.
