78 holdings · as of 2026-06-30 (2.6 months ago)

NON-COMPLIANT At least 23.31% of portfolio weight is in non-compliant holdings — already over the 5% threshold, so the verdict is settled whatever the unmatched 40% turns out to be. Matching more holdings can only raise this share, never lower it.

78 holdings, 46 matched (60% of weight). Portfolio as of 2026-06-30, filed 2026-08-24. Source: SEC Form N-PORT.

5.19% of this portfolio’s income is non-permissible — weighted across holdings, computed over 51% of portfolio weight (39 of 78 holdings). The common approach purifies that proportion of income received — dividends — not of the position’s value. We report the ratio; what to do with it is a question for your own scholar.

Portfolio shares are withheld: coverage is below the floor needed to state one. The holdings themselves are below, because the names are evidence you can check.

The published standards disagree about this fund by 24 points of portfolio weight — 35.7% of it passes AAOIFI, 11.7% passes MSCI Islamic. Which number is yours depends on which standard you follow.

These bars are the financial-ratio result under each standard — debt, receivables and interest income. They do not screen what the business does, so a holding can pass every ratio here and still be questionable or non-compliant on activity. The blended verdict above accounts for both.

ratios pass on 35.7% ratios fail on 23.3% 39.6% not rated under AAOIFI

45 of 78 listed holdings carry our own per-methodology verdicts (59% of weight). The rest hold a provider verdict with no methodology breakdown, and are counted as rated by none. Of those, 15 (19% of weight) also carry the underlying debt ratio; the rest show a verdict without the figure behind it.

Whether the technical picture shows an edge right now. Separate from the Sharia verdict, which this side never overrides.

SEPARATE FROM SHARIAH
No trade setup shown — a stock that isn't cleanly Sharia-compliant never gets a bullish verdict here.

MSMLX (MSMLX) is currently considered not halal (non-compliant), per our own look-through to its filed holdings. See its filed holdings and the weight breakdown below for the reasoning.

Support & Resistance

This fund prices once a day, so its bars carry no intraday high or low — floor-trader pivots are not defined for it.

Price Forecast

The range is measured volatility (ATR over the horizon), not a target — a wider band means a more volatile asset, not a stronger view. The direction is the indicator tally below. Every forecast is recorded when made and scored against the real price when it comes due, including the wrong ones. Not a recommendation, and not a fatwa.

About MSMLX

Under normal circumstances, the fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets, which include borrowings for investment purposes, in the common and preferred stocks of small companies located in emerging market countries. Emerging market countries generally include every country in the world except the United States, Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore and most of the countries in Western Europe.

Background via Yahoo Finance — informational, not part of the verdict.

SMC — Top Down

Market structure by timeframe, read from real bars. A bias per timeframe rather than a forecast — timeframes disagreeing is information, not noise.

Not enough price history yet for a smart-money structure read on any timeframe.

Momentum & Volume

Rate of change and relative volume against this symbol's own recent history. Momentum describes what price has done; it is not a claim about what it will do.

Peer Movement

How the rest of the sector moved over the same window. Context for a price move, never a cause of one.

Before you act on this

The questions worth asking about any verdict on this page, answered plainly.

Is a fund screened on its name?

No. HTR reads the fund's filed holdings and screens each one, then reports the result by weight. A fund marketed as Islamic still gets the same look-through as any other.

What does unrated weight mean?

It is the share of the fund whose holdings HTR cannot cover far enough to rate. It is reported as unrated rather than counted as compliant, because a holding nobody screened should not look like one that passed.

Does the issuer's board make it compliant?

It matters, and it is noted, but it does not replace the look-through. The board's judgement and the holdings screen are shown separately so you can see when they agree and when they do not.

How often is this re-screened?

When the fund files new holdings, and on a rolling basis besides. The date on the verdict above is the last time this fund was actually recomputed.

Open research, not a fatwa. HTR applies published screening standards to filings and publishes what they say, including when they disagree. Nothing here is financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell. Verdicts can change when new filings land.

Compare with

Same screen, different answers. Comparison is where the standards disagreeing becomes useful rather than confusing.
