"The Robinson Opportunistic Income Fund returned -0.15% in Q4 2025, trailing its benchmark. The manager warns of a potential AI-driven market bubble but sees defensive value and high yields in deeply discounted taxable credit CEFs."
Executive Summary
The Robinson Opportunistic Income Fund (RBNNX) returned -0.15% in Q4 2025, underperforming its benchmark, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Credit Index, which returned 0.76%. For the full year 2025, the fund returned 7.56% versus 10.46% for the benchmark. The quarter was characterized by a historic US government shutdown, a lack of reliable economic data, and two 25 bps interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. The sub-advisor warns of extreme froth in equity and credit markets, noting that the AI euphoria mirrors the dot-com bubble of the late 1990s. Despite these concerns, they believe the taxable credit CEF market offers a highly defensive entry point due to attractive discounts (-8.3% weighted average versus -4.7% historically), and they remain committed to their hedged discount-capture strategy.
