The WS T. Bailey Multi-Asset Dynamic Fund seeks steady long-term growth and capital preservation by dynamically allocating assets across a globally diversified mix of equities, fixed income, commodities, and specialist absolute return strategies. During June 2026, the fund generated a modest positive return of 5.42% for the quarter, supported by strong performance from specialized healthcare and insurance equity holdings and defensive, shorter-duration debt instruments. However, gains were partially offset by a double-digit decline in gold following key leadership developments at the Federal Reserve. Macroeconomic risks remain elevated, driven by persistent energy-led inflation, geopolitical tensions surrounding the US-Iran ceasefire, and growing investor skepticism regarding the ultimate monetization of artificial intelligence infrastructure investments. In response to these persistent uncertainties, the managers maintain a highly diversified portfolio posture, combining resilient cash-flow generators, selective growth equities, and alternative absolute return diversifiers designed to successfully navigate multiple economic outcomes rather than relying on a single directional market thesis.
The fund aims to deliver consistent long-term growth above inflation while minimizing downside risk by actively spreading investments across highly diversified global asset classes and dynamically adjusting to shifting market regimes.
The managers maintain a cautious but resilient posture, highlighting that several key market assumptions remain unresolved, including the persistence of energy-led inflation, the US-Iran ceasefire, and the long-term monetization of AI. Rather than relying on a single outcome, the fund is structured to withstand this uncertainty through a diversified mix of growth assets, resilient cash-flow generators, and absolute return diversifiers.
