1 ABN AFSL Tel: Denning Pryce Global Income Fund May 207 Market Overview Volatility conditions remain benign. Volatility (as reflected by the VIX) remains at multi-year lows suggesting there is limited investor concern (and definitely no areas of panic) priced into the market. We make no specific forecast about the future direction of the overall market. But with increased cash holdings at fund managers and market analysts predicting a pullback in markets, it may be that the path of least resistance in the short term is up. If funds are under-invested, a market move up can squeeze investors into participating at higher levels. With global markets trading higher and volatility continuing to sit at the low end of long-term averages, we can discount much of the dominant negative media narrative - of stretched company valuations and a volatile US political backdrop as the anti-trump rhetoric continues. A recent study found that 80 of US TV and print articles were negative on Trump. Markets stumbled for a day - and the S&P500 fell.8 - following headlines suggesting a Trump impeachment. Yet the S&P500, DOW and the NASDAQ all touched record highs recently. Markets focus on opportunity notably the economic backdrop - and ignore the noise. Share markets have been led by the performance of Google (6), Apple (6) and Amazon (7). Their collective market cap sits at $.97 trillion following better than expected earnings. Meantime, the traditional media names were among the worst performers: Twenty First Century Fox (FOXA) fell.2, Walt Disney (DIS) fell 6.63, CBS down 8.9 and Viacom (VIS) down 8.3. Europe was mostly firm. CAC40, DAX and FTSE each put in a positive month, with the UK market finishing higher by 4.4 as offshore earners, in particular healthcare stocks, traded well. Astra Zeneca was up 3 and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) up 0. Against the trend, global banks were weak. Wells Fargo (WFC), JP Morgan (JPM) and Bank of America all finished lower by around 4. Citi (C) traded against the trend, up by 3. European bank names also came under pressure: BNP-Paribas (BNP) and Deutsche Bank (DBK) traded lower. In Australia the S&P/ASX200 was down by 3.37 as the government announced a levy on the banks and the big four bank shares fell around 0. Various institutions have attempted to slow housing price growth with rhetoric and proposed regulation, weakening sentiment. Oil fell 2 in May despite OPEC agreeing to continue the reduced supply agreement. Page
2 Table : Fund Performance Summary (Full unit performance detail and methodology is set out at Table 3) As at 3 May 207 Month FYTD 3 Years p.a. 5Years p.a. Since Inception p.a. DP Global Income Fund (Institutional Class unit) Fund benchmark Inception date is 25th July 20. Past performance is not indicative of future performance MSCI World Accumulation Index in Local Currency / 50 Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index Fund Commentary As a result of low option pricing we have continued to add protection across the portfolio as we head into the end of the financial year. The portfolio currently holds 70 equity and options positions (across various international companies and indices). We have allowed several positions to be called away after a strong performance in recent weeks; companies leaving the portfolio included 3M (MMM), DR Horton (DHI) the US home builder, Cerner (CERN) and US Defence Company Raytheon (RTN). The funds are now directed into new opportunities. Technology again led the market higher with Amazon and Google both trading well. Other positions in the portfolio benefited from the positive sentiment in the sector: a long call position in Qualcomm (QCOM), a buy-write position in Microsoft (MSFT) and a protected stock position in Flextronics (FLEX). Flextronics continues to exhibit positive momentum and is now up 46 for the financial year to date, with revenue diversified across sub-sectors including smartphones, computer products, medical applications, and equipment for wireless infrastructure. Healthcare names put in a mixed performance in May. Pfizer (PFE) has struggled in a competitive drug market and the stock fell 3.7. Its solid dividend of 4 remains attractive and with volatility trading at the bottom of the 2 year average, we now hold the position as a protected equity position. This structure combines a long put and long equity position - ensuring that we hold a limited downside exposure should the stock fall. By way of contrast, our holding in Swiss drug maker Novartis (NOVN) returned 3.6. Stryker (SYK) the surgical and medical products developer was up by 4.8. We currently hold the position partially written (buy-write strategy) and will look to roll our existing call options into longer-dated expiries as we approach financial year-end. UK listed Astra Zeneca (AZN) was the standout healthcare stock, trading up 3 in May. Although AZN had good news on the success of a breast cancer drug, it was a currency tailwind from a weak pound which helped to lift profits. Banks remained the underperformers in the portfolio. Citi Group (C) aside, the other majors have struggled. With the sector largely unchanged for 207, BNP-Paribas (BNP), JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, State Street (STT) and Wells Fargo (WFC) all finished lower in May. We hold protection over both WFC and Citi Group and hold our exposure to Morgan Stanley in the form of a long call position. We have also written calls over both JP Morgan and STT. We are comfortable with the mix of these positions, which has helped to minimise losses and remains our preferred way to hold exposure to the sector. At a macro level, regulatory reforms, rate rises and possible Page 2
3 tax cuts in the US do offer significant upside to this sector. We will use the options market to adjust the risk exposure of the sector where and when we see opportunity. Nestle (NESN), the major Swiss packaged food company, put in a good month. Having been largely flat since August 206, the stock had a good run finishing higher by 8. There was no major news in the name, but positive momentum developed in certain names that are paying a reasonable dividend. Vodafone had a positive run in May. Many of the global telecom stocks have been on the outer in recent months as competition changes the existing business model. Fixed line is out of favour and mobile is ultracompetitive. As such, these businesses are evolving and looking to streamline, to provide content in order to grow, as witnessed by AT&T s (T) bid for Time Warner (TWX). Our long call position in Vodafone worked well as the stock rallied from the two pounds price level to finish the month at 2.3, a move of 6. We opted to close out our call position for a profit. Volatility, hence premiums, remain at very low levels. There has been no new discernible low since the sell-down in volatility in April. Regardless of whether volatility has now bottomed or may fall further, we are happy to continue adding more optionality to the portfolio at these levels. Firstly, the low volatility environment is also an opportunity to position for a future move, in either direction. Secondly, for a low dollar amount, we are able to protect elements of our portfolio, for example our protected equity positions in PFE, FLEX and Wells Fargo. We will also continue to add upside exposure to both index and single stock names. We currently hold upside calls in Qualcomm, Schlumberger (SLB), DAX, EuroStoxx, FTSE00 and the S&P500.
