Overall rating out of 295 Nontraditional Bond funds as of June 30, 2023. An investment's overall Morningstar Rating™, based on risk-adjusted return, is a weighted average of its applicable three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating™ metrics.

 


The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or “star rating”, is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating™ does not include any adjustment for sales loads. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating™ for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating™ metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.

OverviewBack To Top

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

The Fund's two investment objectives are to provide total return (with income contributing a significant part) and to limit volatility and downside risk.

Our Portfolio Managers analyze and allocate portions of the fund’s portfolio to high yield corporate bonds, also known as junk bonds, and U.S. Treasury Securities. Each decision must serve one or both of the fund’s two goals: to enhance total return and/or to reduce the overall volatility and downside risk of the portfolio.

The Sierra Tactical Bond Fund seeks to pay a monthly dividend to its shareholders.
