| Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | Management's Discussion of Fund Performance This has been a good year for our portfolio. Our overweighted holdings in Apple (APPL) and Microsoft (MSFT) which we purchased as value stocks years ago soared with the new hope and enthusiasm surrounding artificial intelligence. Additionally, our bank holdings in Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and JP Morgan Chase also did very well likely because of the lack of recession and a more normal yield curve which is good for bank income. While the Federal Reserve was increasing short-term rates, the yield curve was flatter or even inverse. Now that pressure is less the yield curve is looking more normal- but seems to still have a way to go. The lack of recession helps the banks by keeping banking activity strong and them having fewer bad loans. One more potential tailwind is the potential of lessoning regulation with the new administration in Washington. That might be very good for bank earnings as more bank customers can do deals, combinations, reorganizations and that's great for the banks as they charge fat fees when those transaction close. Not everything is going up as much– our energy shares (Occidental Petroleum (OXY) and Chevron (CVX)) have not kept up with the gains we have seen on some of the other stocks. This is likely due to lower inflation which may mean lower oil prices and "Drill Baby Drill" may increase competition in the oil patch. In the future the expected lesser regulation from the new administration may become a tailwind to them, as a lot of their expenses, costs and delays are from the regulation front. Our sole holding in bio- tech has been disappointing as the smaller companies and those medically related are lagging. This may be due to the hangover of COVID and a growing distrust of Pharma companies overall. It's a tough world out there for those that try to make "magic" drugs, get them approved by the FDA and then expect people to take them in this current environment We remain confident in our holdings, overall. |
