| Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | Management's Discussion of Fund Performance There was a notable divergence in stock performance across different sectors and styles during the 12 months ending June 30, 2024. Some sectors underperformed due to their cyclical nature and sensitivity to interest rates, while a concentrated few, particularly mega-cap growth and technology, led the market. Bond markets continued to underperform as the Federal Reserve maintained its restrictive interest rate policy to reduce inflation. Trend-following strategies face headwinds as markets move abruptly, generating whipsaw (selling as markets decline and then buying at higher prices when the market turns quickly higher). Diversification also hampered returns as market gains were mostly isolated in the mega-cap growth and technology asset classes. The Fund's fiscal year returns were 11.54%, compared to 12.03% for the S&P Balance Equity and Bond Index-Moderate benchmark. During the calendar year ended June 30, 2024, the Fund kept a portion of its holdings in money markets, which lowered its overall performance compared to the general markets. |
