-
The consistent returns across the investment history indicates the Fund's ability to provide positive returns in volatile and negative markets and significantly outperform the broader market. The Fund's Sharpe Ratio and Sortino Ratio are 1.03 (Index 0.37) and 1.72 (Index 0.42) respectively.
-
Fund performance in February was 0.05%, with no major changes to the Fund's positioning. Behind this month?s result was generally sound pair positioning, with strong positive contributions from long QBE Insurance / short Suncorp Group, long Ramsay Healthcare / short Primary Healthcare, and a long position in Whitehaven Coal. However offsetting these gains was the Fund's long Brambles / short Toll Holdings.
