Q2 2026 Fund Commentary
Commentary and opinions are provided by Keyridge Asset Management.
Market commentary
U.S. equities delivered strong returns in the second quarter of 2026 as resilient economic growth, easing inflation concerns and strong corporate earnings supported investor sentiment. Performance was led by artificial intelligence-related technology and semiconductor company stocks, while easing geopolitical tensions and lower energy prices further supported markets.
Performance
In the sub-advisor’s view, it’s important to note that the Fund’s objective is to target 5% annual income comprised of option premiums and dividends from the underlying equity, rather than to track the equity benchmark directly.
The primary driver of relative performance is the Fund’s option overlay. The sub-advisor sells away a portion of the Fund’s equity market upside exposure through call options. This helps the Fund achieve its income generation target but detracts from performance relative to its equity benchmark when the equity market rallies.
The Fund’s call option overlay detracted from relative performance over the quarter, as the strong rally in U.S. equities meant that a portion of the upside was given up in exchange for option premium income.
Portfolio activity
Each week, the sub-advisor trades one-month call options in a systematic manner, which involves closing expired option contracts and selling new ones. This call option overlay helps the Fund achieve its income generation target.
The Fund can also increase or decrease its option positions to maintain notional exposure within a target range. This is done to manage the amount of upside exposure that’s exchanged for premium income.
Outlook
In the sub-advisor’s view, there’s been no change to the strategic position of the Fund. The Fund aims to target 5% annual income comprised of option premiums and dividends from the underlying equity. Full equity exposure was maintained daily, and option notionals were monitored and maintained within the target range.
