| MARKET | |
| The Bloomberg Barclays California Municipal Index returned 0.94% in the second quarter of 2018. While front-end U.S. Treasury rates continued to rise, front-end municipal rates remained steady as investors sought to limit interest-rate risk in short maturities. Throughout the second quarter, municipal-Treasury yield ratios, the harbinger of relative value, fell notably on the front-end of the curve. In contrast, the ratio increased slightly for longer maturity bonds, making 1- to 10-year municipals relatively more expensive, while 30-year bonds became less expensive. | |
| The lack of municipal supply has been notable in 2018, driven largely by tax-reform removing the exempt status of certain types of municipal bond issues. Gross issuance was $161 billion to the end of June, which compares to $201 billion in the same period last year - a decline of 20%. | |
| The decrease in issuance has coincided with consistently strong municipal mutual fund inflows, which were positive for the last eight consecutive weeks of the second quarter. This technical backdrop set the stage for the richening of front-end municipals. | |
| OUTLOOK | |
| The municipal yield curve remained almost unchanged in the second quarter of 2018. The fund expects to maintain its "barbell" structure, seeking enhanced yield from the long-end of the curve while anchoring duration with an overweight to floating-rate securities on the front-end. The allocation to floating-rate structures is anticipated to offer enhanced liquidity and defensive exposure, given rich, front-end yield ratios and our expectation that the Federal Reserve will continue its tightening cycle. | |
| We anticipate that the lack of supply, coupled with strong retail demand, should continue to provide support to the municipal market in 2018. This dynamic has been especially pronounced in California, given that investors in high-tax states have an added incentive to allocate to municipals, in light of the limitation on state and local income tax deductions. | |
