Fund Commentary - 08/31/2023

MARKET
Money market products continue to offer attractive yield opportunities, anywhere from 5.3% to over 6%. Massive U.S. Treasury bill issuance is impacting yield levels across the sector. Shorter maturity three-month commercial paper (CP) is trading in line with U.S. Treasury bills. However, longer maturity CP is yielding 40-50 basis points more than U.S. Treasuries. U.S. Treasury bill supply is the highest share of outstanding debt since the start of the pandemic. That said, demand for these instruments remains robust. Money market funds have seen inflows for 10 consecutive weeks, increasing assets under management to 5.5 trillion.
The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) remained at 5.31% over the month. The three-month SOFR ended at 5.40%, and the three-month U.S. Treasury bill ended at 5.44%.

OUTLOOK
The portfolio holds a mix of short-term government securities and seeks to provide a stable and positive overall yield.
