How it has done
CSEIX share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 14.88%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
Jun 2026 has been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so it is not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
The 6 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.10% | +12.99% | +40.30% | +24.17% | -12.88% | |
| 1.75% | +12.24% | +37.47% | +20.10% | -12.99% | |
| 0.85% | +13.22% | +41.29% | +25.74% | -12.77% | |
| 1.25% | +12.82% | +39.63% | +23.26% | -12.92% | |
| 0.75% | +13.38% | +41.62% | +26.29% | -12.75% | |
| 0.75% | +13.38% | +41.70% | +26.32% | -12.75% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 6.23pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.25pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
