Moreover, products must have returns greater than the style benchmark for the latest three year period ending June 30, 2012. Products are then selected which have a standard deviation for the five year period equal or less than the median standard deviation for the peer group. At this point, the top ten information ratios for the latest five year period ending June 30, 2012 then become 6 STAR TOP GUNS.
