Despite the limited trading it still has a lofty 1.34% expense ratio.Turnover: 120% (Marketwatch) or 89% (the fund)
That doesn't sound like "limited trading".
If they really only trade once a year, you could easily ride on their coattails and buy a 1/30'th weight of each stock in their holdings.
Save the 1.34% expense ratio.
Or, heck, run your own screen:
"30 domestic, common stocks with the highest one-year price appreciation that also meet the following criteria:
Market capitalization between $1 and $10 billion
Price-to-sales ratio below 1.5
Annual earnings higher than the previous year
Positive stock price appreciation over the past three- and six-month periods"
The Russell index shows 360 stocks in that market cap range, so easily doable.

Or maybe don't bother.
