Fund results for May 2011:
The Fund’s medium to long term trading strategies underperformed in May as investors temporarily abandoned risk assets in favor of safe haven alternatives. The Fund’s short-term strategies also contributed negatively to overall performance as losses in equities, metals, and currencies offset gains in bonds and energies.
Equities reversed as declines in U.S. employment, housing, and GDP combined with disappointing German factory orders to unnerve bullish investors. The Fund’s allocation to global stock indices underperformed despite a late recovery as the European debt crisis and a slowdown in manufacturing heightened fears of stagnant growth.
The Fund’s bond strategies produced positive results across the board in May as safe haven assets pressed higher amid uncertainty concerning the sustainability of global economic growth. Treasuries rallied as bond yields in peripheral European states soared amid growing concern that a Greek default or restructuring was a real possibility.
Allocations to currencies yielded poor results for the Fund in May as the U.S. dollar and euro reversed April’s action following the ECB’s unexpected removal of the “strong vigilance” on higher prices language from their May policy statement. The growing focus on the European sovereign debt situation prompted a flight out of risk assets and into the U.S dollar and the Swiss franc, which established a new record high against the euro.
Energies and base metals saw sharp declines as a bearish Goldman Sachs commodity call, along with heightened volatility in forex markets tied to the problems in Europe spurred liquidation. The Fund’s performance in the metals sector reversed as gold
futures opened the month retracing over 6% from all time highs established on May 2nd. The weakness stemmed from massive liquidation in silver and receding inflation fears as European sovereign debt instability delayed near term prospects for an ECB rate hike. April gains turned into May losses for the Fund in energies as recent upward trends in crude oil, heating oil, and gasoline gave way to significant declines.
Grains endured more volatile action as extreme weather in the Northern hemisphere continued to threaten production prospects. : Superfund’s position in grains suffered due to continued volatility from broad based commodity selling, a reversal in the dollar, and a surprise 8% upward revision in 2010-11 USDA corn ending stocks.
