| Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | WHAT AFFECTED THE FUND’S PERFORMANCE DURING THE REPORTING ■ During the reporting period, the US Federal Reserve held policy rates steady. Meanwhile, issuance deferred maintenance and stabilizing project costs amid slowing inflation, moderating economic data, and upcoming elections. Despite downgraded outlooks for California, strong fundamentals (e.g., healthy tax collections, robust rainy-day funds, and upgrades that outpaced downgrades) provided a positive backdrop for demand, and spreads tightened. ■ The following contributed most to the Fund’s performance relative to the Index during the period: a significant overweight to the long end of the yield curve (despite front-end rates rallying more than long-end rates and the portfolio’s yield curve flattener positioning); an underweight to San Francisco airports subordinated credits; and overweight positioning in housing bonds, particularly Freddie Mac multifamily deals. (A yield curve is a line graph that illustrates the relationship between the yields and maturities of fixed income securities. It is created by plotting the yields of different maturities for the same type of bonds. A yield curve flattener is an interest rate environment in which long-term rates are decreasing more quickly than short-term rates.) ■ The following detracted most from the Fund’s performance relative to the Index during the reporting period: duration positioning as municipal bond rates rallied, and positioning in specific senior San Francisco airport bonds and special tax assessment bonds. (Duration measures the sensitivity of the price—the value of principal—of a bond to a change in interest rates.) ■ The Fund uses derivatives when they facilitate implementation of the overall investment approach. During the reporting period, the Fund used futures to help manage duration positioning and yield curve exposure. The Fund’s positions reporting period. |
