Madison Core Bond Fund · MADISON FUNDS

386 holdings

NON-COMPLIANT 80.07% of portfolio weight is in non-compliant holdings, over the 5% threshold.

66.78% of that is conventional interest-bearing debt, identified from the fund's own filing rather than by screening an issuer. Sukuk are deliberately excluded from this test and are never counted here.

386 holdings, 303 matched (86% of weight). Portfolio as of 2026-07-31, filed 2026-09-17. Source: SEC Form N-PORT.

4.72% of this portfolio’s income is non-permissible — weighted across holdings, computed over 13% of portfolio weight (79 of 386 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.

The published standards disagree about this fund by 2 points of portfolio weight — 6.1% of it passes Dow Jones Islamic, 3.7% 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 5.3% ratios fail on 12.4% 81.7% not rated under AAOIFI

78 of 386 listed holdings carry our own per-methodology verdicts (18% of weight). The rest hold a provider verdict with no methodology breakdown, and are counted as rated by none. Of those, 72 (17% of weight) also carry the underlying debt ratio; the rest show a verdict without the figure behind it.

Trade setup

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.

Madison Core Bond Fund (MBORX) 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.

Screened on its holdings, not its name

HTR reads the fund's filed holdings and screens each one, then reports the result by weight. A holding it cannot cover far enough is reported as unrated rather than counted as a pass.

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.

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.

No usable intraday or daily bars came back for this listing, so there is no structure to read.

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.
