1 NORTHERN TAX-EXEMPT FIXED INCOME FUNDS S EMIANNUAL REPORT SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
2 A MESSAGE FROM BOB BROWNE CHIEF INVESTMENT OFFICER Despite accelerating economic growth and policy tightening by the U.S. Federal Reserve, bonds performed well during the semiannual (six-month) period ended September 30, Both rate- and credit-sensitive market segments participated in the gains, as measured by returns of 2.31% for the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and 4.19% for the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index. Bonds performance for the six-month period ended September 30, 2017, benefited from favorable timing. When the period began in March 2017, the financial markets were still discounting a substantial shift toward growth-oriented policies in Washington, D.C. However, as spring turned to summer, it became apparent that the Republican Party would have greater difficulty in enacting its agenda than first thought. The result was a gradual decline in the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield from 2.40% on March 31, 2017 to its eventual low of 2.05% on September 7, Much of this positive performance was erased over the remainder of September, 2017 due to revived hopes for U.S. tax reform, but the 10-year issues nonetheless finished the period in positive territory. The yield curve flattened, indicating outperformance for longer-term bonds. Investment-grade corporate bonds posted solid gains and comfortably outpaced U.S. Treasuries. A backdrop of accelerating growth, stronger corporate earnings and improving balance sheets gave investors confidence to take on more risk in order to earn higher yields in corporate issues. High-yield bonds, while benefiting from the same trends, lagged investment-grade corporates. Yield spreads relative to Treasuries moved to the low end of their historical range during late 2016 and early 2017, limiting the potential upside from price appreciation. However, fundamentals remained supportive, with bond default rates trending lower after a temporary increase that followed the downturn in energy prices. In addition, the corporate bond market to function well, with ample liquidity. For their part, municipal bonds registered robust total returns due to a combination of low new-issue supply and improvement in the health of state and local finances. As we move toward 2018, the direction of Federal Reserve policy remains one of the key points of focus for the fixed-income market. On one hand, a persistent lack of U.S. inflation has raised questions as to whether the Federal Reserve will be able to maintain its desired pace for tightening monetary policy. Current estimates of core personal consumption expenditures the Federal Reserve s most important inflation measure show an annual increase of just 1.4%, quite a distance from the central bank s 2% goal. The end result will likely be a very gradual approach to increasing interest rates, which should be positive for fixed-income markets. At the same time, the Federal Reserve has announced its intention to begin shrinking its $4.5 trillion balance sheet. While it is likely to pursue this shift in a gradual fashion, there was no precedent for the scale of previous policy support from quantitative easing meaning that there is also no blueprint for reducing it. As the Federal Reserve begins to reduce its balance sheet, we can expect some fits and starts since turning points are difficult to diagnose. However, central banks are loath to unwind too rapidly after having done the hard work of engineering an enduring recovery. We therefore expect Federal Reserve policy to remain a source of uncertainty, but we also anticipate that the central bank will stay focused on reducing its monetary accommodation in a slow and transparent manner designed to minimize market disruptions.
