Strata Credit Monthly Comment - November 2024

November was marked by a series of stronger-than-expected US economic indicators. However, the spotlight was on the highly anticipated US elections, deemed a close contest but culminating in a landslide victory for Donald Trump and a Republican sweep. This outcome positions the President to advance his policy agenda with minimal legislative opposition. While the long-term implications for credit markets remain uncertain, short-term positive dynamics have been bolstered by strong technicals and heightened investor optimism.

The fund delivered positive performance in November, driven by the financial sector, particularly subordinated bonds, which outperformed on the back of robust market momentum. Despite the favourable environment, portfolio managers maintained a cautious and selective approach, identifying bottom-up mispriced opportunities while preserving strong protective measures. Tight valuations and growing macroeconomic volatility were key considerations, with liquidity levels kept high to ensure flexibility amid potential market swings
