The Morningstar Category classifications were introduced in 1996 to help investors make comparisons between mutual Funds. It assigns a cateogory based on the underlying securities in each portfolio.
The categories make it easier to build well-diversified portfolios, assess potential risk, and identify top-performing Funds. The Funds are placed in a given category based on their portfolio statistics and compositions over the past three years.
The Morningstar rating or "star rating", is a purely quantitive, retrospective-looking measure of a Fund's past performance. Funds are rated from one to five stars, with the best performers receiving five stars and the worst performers receiving a single star. Star ratings are calculated at the end of every month.

This is an assessment of the variations in a Fund's monthly returns in comparison to similar Funds.
In each Morningstar Category, the 10% of Funds with the lowest measured risk are described as Low Risk, the next 22.5% Below Average, the middle 35% Average, the next 22.5% Above Average, and the top 10% High. Morningstar Risk is measured for up to three time periods (three, five, and 10 years). These separate measures are then weighted and averaged to produce an overall measure for the Fund. Funds with less than three years of performance history are not rated.
Morningstar Sustainability Rating
The Morningstar Sustainability Rating is a measure of how well the holdings in a portfolio are managing their environmental, social, and governance, or ESG, risk and opportunity relative to their Morningstar Category peers. The Sustainability Rating is depicted by globe icons where high equals 5 globes and low equals 1 globe. Sustainability ratings are updated monthly.

The Communication Services, Energy, Industrials and Technology sectors make up the Sensitive Super Sector; Healthcare, Consumer Defensive and Utilities make up the Defensive Super Sector; and Basic Materials, Consumer Cyclical, Financial Services and Real Estate form the Cyclical Super Sector.
Because sectors can differ greatly in their characteristics, comparing a Fund with its sector rather than the market as a whole is generally a better way of putting it in the proper context.
