Large Blend/Value YTD ... FLCSX, SCHD, PARWX, PRBLX, FXAIX

Barron's ... https://www.barrons.com/articles/inflation-is-here-to-stay-how-to-adjust-your-portfolio-51649426800 suggests FLCSX in the stock section. It wasn't on my watch list. Let's see YTD performance / ER:

FLCSX -.45% / .48%
SCHD -1.04% / .06%
TRVLX -1.80% / .77%
FXAIX -5.46% / .015%
PARWX -6.24% / .88%
PRBLX -6.59% / .84%

Parnassus funds previously discussed lack of energy / ESG focus sure affects performance. SCHD has the lowest ER, followed by FXAIX and close behind FLCSX. Any other favorites?

Barron's: "The $3.2 billion Fidelity Large Cap Stock (FLCSX), which returned 13% a year over the past five years, beating 88% of peers, is another core fund with a value bent that has a higher allocation than peers to inflation beneficiaries such as energy. “If you think oil prices will stay high, energy stocks aren’t expensive versus history,” says manager Matthew Fruhan."
