? Morningstar Direct SM Asset Flows Commentary: United States Morningstar Research 17 April 2017 Data through March 31, 2017 U.S. Mutual Funds and Exchange- Traded Products Alina Lamy Senior Analyst Quantitative Research +1 312-384-3924 alina.lamy@morningstar.com Some Flows Are Going Into Equity, but Fixed Income Is Still in the Lead Taxable-bond funds attracted the highest inflows once again in March, even higher than they had in February. The flow this month was almost evenly distributed between active and passive taxable-bond funds, underlining that in fixed income, as opposed to equity, active management is still very much alive. All active equity flows were negative (U.S., sector, and international), and all their passive counterparts were positive. International-equity flows have been consistent for a few months, indicating renewed investor interest toward diversification overseas. U.S. stock-market performance has been practically flat during the month, with the S&P 500 posting a 0.1% return. Confidence in the new administration s promises to implement policies that would create a business-favorable environment was somewhat shaken when the healthcare bill was stopped dead in its tracks (or even before hitting the tracks). U.S.-equity flows, however, stayed positive for the fifth consecutive month. In other words, there hasn t been a month of outflows for U.S. equity since the election.

The Fed s statement expressed expectations that economic activity will expand at a moderate pace and that near-term risks to the economic outlook appear roughly balanced.

Page 3 of 11 Flows into U.S. equity remained roughly balanced as well meaning rough outflows on the active side and sustained inflows on the passive side. Notably, however, the inflows are generally large enough these days that they are able to maintain the overall U.S.-equity category group in positive territory. All category groups except allocation and commodities received inflows in March. Commodities were dragged down by a $384 million outflow from precious-metals funds, following a drop in the price of gold (it later recovered) during the first half of the month. Allocation s largest outflows came from world-allocation funds: $1.1 billion. Exhibit 2 Category Group Flows During the Past 12 Months ($ Billion) 100 80 U.S. Equity Sector Equity International Equity Allocation Taxable Bond Municipal Bond Alternative Commodities 60 40 20 0-20 -40 Apr May June July Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar 2016 2017 The most intriguing pattern in Exhibit 2 is that investors are back to pouring money into bond funds even as the Federal Reserve is raising rates. Bonds tend to not perform as well during periods of rising rates, so one has to wonder why, even though good performance is unlikely in the near future, bonds remain an investor favorite. Flows have been more evenly distributed in the past three months, though, so the general strategy resembles overall diversification with a heavier fixed-income component.

The top three Morningstar Categories were unchanged since last month: intermediate-term bond, large blend, and foreign large blend. And, also just like last month, flows into large blend were negative on the active side and positive on the passive side. For the intermediate- bond category, however, active flows largely surpassed passive ones. Investors are putting their hopes in the ability of fixed-income managers to navigate what will most likely be a shaky environment for bonds, as interest rates rise and new policies out of Washington move markets in unexpected ways. Also, intermediate-term bonds are less sensitive to interest-rate movements than their longer-term counterparts, so it makes sense that, in the fixed-income space, flows would be concentrated in the intermediate-term category. High-yield bond, on the other hand, was the category with the largest outflows. High-yield bonds tend to be correlated with oil prices because many of these bonds are issued by energy companies. In the wake of the recent U.S. airstrike in Syria and concerns over global supply, oil prices may prove much more volatile, and it s possible that investors are moving away based on that anticipation. High-yield performance has been neither great nor abysmal: 2.7% in the first quarter.

Overcoming major hurdles,
Page 6 of 11 PIMCO managed to come out of that maelstrom with its reputation intact and with a new star fund, PIMCO Income PIMIX, that s been one of the best-flowing funds in the last few years. This fund's atypical-for-pimco yield focus, heavier-than-usual reliance on sectors less tied to macro decisions, and strong resources have helped isolate it from the fallout of Bill Gross' late- 2014 departure. In fact, it has been pulling in assets hand-over-fist at a time when its favorite markets are shrinking, writes my colleague Eric Jacobson, who covers the fund. Dan Ivascyn and comanager Alfred Murata have set a high bar for the fund, which is ranked first in its category in terms of five-year performance and third in terms of three-year performance. Franklin Templeton and Fidelity were in over-$3-billion-outflow territory last month for their active products. However, Fidelity was able to compensate for the outflows by attracting $4.8 billion to its passive funds. Concerns about Franklin s investment lineup and firm leadership have led the Morningstar Manager Research team to downgrade Franklin Templeton s Parent Pillar rating to Neutral from Positive. After experiencing massive outflows and poor performance in recent years, the firm cut 300 personnel worldwide and launched seven exchange-traded funds in the United States, in an attempt to start competing in the passive arena.

Page 8 of 11 As of this writing, my colleague John Rekenthaler is writing a column entitled For Vanguard, Every Year is a New Record (But So Far This Year, There Is Also Some Consolation for the Others), which is in perfect resonance with Exhibit 6 above. In 2015 and 2016, not only did Vanguard dominate with the largest flows, but flows for all the other fund companies put together were actually negative. For the year to date in 2017, Vanguard is still dominating, but the big reversal is that flows for everybody else are now positive. Another very interesting piece of news came on March 28 from BlackRock: The company announced it would restructure strategies for its actively managed U.S. equity funds to rely more heavily on computer-generated algorithms and quantitative models. The revamped new funds will be called Advantage and will have lower fees even though they will remain, technically, active. The move will be accompanied by approximately 40 layoffs, including a few portfolio managers. In other words, human stock-pickers are being replaced with computers, at lower cost. The key question is, will this also result in better performance?

In addition to PIMCO Income, fixedincome funds from Bridge Builder, Prudential, T. Rowe Price, and Dodge & Cox attracted more than $1 billion each.
Page 9 of 11 Bronze-rated Prudential Total Return PDBAX is more than what you might expect from an asset manager owned by a quiet insurance company, and is run by a fixed-income group that rivals the largest in the industry in terms of research manpower and boasts similarly massive investments in number-crunching analytics, writes my colleague Eric Jacobson, who covers the fund. It is top-10-ranked in its category based on long-term returns. Dodge & Cox Income DODIX has a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Gold earned by a veteran and well-resourced team, time-tested process, low expenses, and an impressive long-term track record, according to director of manager research Cara Esser. Adds Russel Kinnel, editor of Morningstar FundInvestor: Dodge & Cox has been very consistent at delivering value to investors, though with fewer funds and less money than Vanguard. Even more impressive, though, is that Dodge & Cox has a perfect five Gold medalists out of five funds. Its focus and dedication to long-term thinking have built some great funds.

On the active side, two JPMorgan funds landed in the bottom-flowing five in March, a highyield bond fund and a short-duration one. Harbor International HAINX is an interesting appearance: Gold-rated, yet in severe outflow territory. Senior analyst Kevin McDevitt explains: The fund is experiencing the most severe withdrawals in its history, but they haven't been
Page 10 of 11 terribly disruptive. Harbor International's results have been below its historical standard, but it is still a formidable competitor. And, lo and behold, PIMCO Total Return PTTRX was nowhere in sight on the bottom-flowing list.

Page 11 of 11 Note: The figures in this report were compiled on April 11, 2017, and reflect only the funds that had reported net assets by that date. The figures in both the commentary and the extended tables are survivorship-bias-free. This report includes both mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, but not funds of funds unless specifically stated. Important methodology note: Morningstar computes flows using the approach that is standard in the industry: Estimated net flow is the change in assets not explained by the performance of the fund. Our method assumes that flows occur uniformly over the course of the month. Adjustments for mergers are performed automatically. When liquidated funds are included, the final assets of the fund are counted as outflows. Reinvested dividends are not counted as inflows. We use fund-level reinvestment rates to improve accuracy in this respect. We make ad hoc adjustments for unusual corporate actions such as reverse share splits, and we overwrite our estimates with actual flows if managers are willing to provide the data to us.
