April 7, 2014
PAYROLLS EXPAND BY 192,000 IN MARCH This gain almost met Wall Street’s expectations. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg had forecast 200,000 new jobs. March’s hiring didn’t move the Labor Department’s unemployment indicators much: the jobless rate remained at 6.7%, the labor force participation rate rose just slightly to 63.2, and the population of long-term unemployed still hovered at around 3.7 million. Revisions improved January and February hiring figures, however: the Labor Department now says 144,000 Americans found jobs in January, and that 197,000 new jobs were created in February.1,2 FACTORIES PICK UP THEIR PACE March saw the manufacturing sector expand for a ninth consecutive month. The Institute for Supply Management’s factory PMI rose half a point in March to a reading of 53.7. (A day later, the Commerce Department announced that factory orders had risen 1.6% for February.) The Institute’s non-manufacturing PMI came in at 53.1 for March, rising 1.5 points. Still, both readings were beneath Investing.com consensus forecasts, which predicted a manufacturing reading of 54.0 and a service sector reading of 53.5.3 GOLD REGAINS THE $1,300 LEVEL With a gain of 0.7% across five days, the precious metal settled at $1,303.50 on the COMEX Friday. Silver rose 0.8% across the week to finish at $19.95. In contrast, NYMEX crude slipped 0.5% from Monday to Friday, ending the week at $101.14.2 A TECH SELLOFF, A WEEKLY GAIN FOR THE S&P 500 Sharp drops Thursday and Friday took the NASDAQ down to 4,127.72 at week’s end. The techheavy benchmark lost 0.67% in five trading days as big-name tech and biotech shares stumbled. The week was better for the Dow (+0.55% to 16,412.71) and the S&P 500 (+0.40% to 1,865.09).4,5 THIS WEEK: No major economic releases are scheduled for Monday. Tuesday, a new earnings season kicks off with Q1 results from Alcoa. Wednesday, the March 19 Federal Reserve policy minutes are released, a report on February wholesale inventories appears and earnings arrive from Constellation Brands, Ruby Tuesday and Bed Bath & Beyond. Quarterly results from Family Dollar, Pier 1 Imports and Rite Aid come out on Thursday along with the latest initial jobless claims numbers. Friday, March’s Producer Price Index is released, the University of Michigan’s initial April consumer sentiment index appears, and Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase and Fastenal announce earnings.

MGAM Tactical Dynamic Allocation Strategy
Opportunistic portfolios are created during market bottoms taking advantage of lower prices and higher cash flows. 2002 and 2009 are excellent examples.
As equity markets rise, the goal becomes scaling back risk toward a more moderate portfolio.
5
Following major stock market rallies, the goal is to protect gains by moving to a more conservative portfolio. 1999 and 2007 provided opportunities in more conservative fixed income instruments as the Federal Reserve tightened interest rates.
Tactical allocation provides a planning tool for adjusting portfolios for the economic cycle, but does not eliminate risk or assure future performance.

APRIL 02 2014
U.S. investors are largely convinced that the Fed will raise interest rates in the middle of 2015 but sluggish inflation could push that eventuality back into 2016. Global CIO Commentary by Scott Minerd Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen made quite an impression at her inaugural press conference when she indicated that interest rates could begin to rise no sooner than six months after the Fed’s asset purchases end. But, perhaps of greater interest were her statements making clear that U.S. inflation has replaced unemployment as the primary factor she will consider when choosing the specific timing of the first increase in interest rates. Now, financial markets are getting more sensitive to inflation expectations and announcements. While investors will likely debate ad nauseam the level of inflation which will compel the Fed to act, the timing of hiking the federal funds target rate will depend largely on the balance of power between Fed hawks and doves. The hawks believe policy must stay ahead of inflation for fear of losing control and having to raise rates even higher, while the doves are unlikely to act until they can see the whites of inflation’s eyes. In reality, the slow progress toward the Fed’s 2 percent inflation target could see the whole debate being deferred late into 2015 or even the beginning of 2016. History, as shown in the chart below, suggests that equities should outperform fixed-income assets in the year leading up to the eventual rise in interest rates. The Fed’s “dots” chart anonymously plots where Fed officials believe short-term rates will be over a three to four year horizon. Today, the majority of dots predict a longer-run federal funds target rate of 4 percent or above, with some dots reaching 4.5 percent. Historically, as the Fed raises rates, the Treasury yield curve becomes flatter, and in time, the 10year U.S. Treasury yield drops below the fed funds rate. So, if the “dots” are correct, and the fed funds rate is headed to as high as 4.5 percent, it is possible that the 10-year U.S. Treasury note will reach 4-4.25 percent. This means that floating-rate assets, particularly bank loans and collateralized loan obligations, will likely continue to outperform. Flows into bank loans should continue as interest rates rise and there is likely some spread tightening left in the sector. The bad news is that securities in the three to seven year area, called the belly of the curve, will likely underperform. Credit spreads should not start to widen until we see an increase in defaults, which start to tick up usually about one to two years after the Fed begins to tighten. So, even if you believe Dr. Janet Yellen will begin raising interest rates in 2015, credit spreads are unlikely to meaningfully widen until late in 2016 or 2017. Chart of the Week U.S. Equities Outperform in 12 Months Before Fed Tightens
Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen has made it clear that she could raise interest rates as early as June 2015, although we do not see that as likely. During the 12 months before a Fed tightening cycle begins -- a period we could now be entering -- U.S. equities have typically outperformed fixed income by a wide margin. In the last five periods leading up to Fed tightening, the S&P 500 has gained 22 percent on average in the year before the Fed began raising rates, compared to 4.2 percent or less for fixed-income assets.

Economic Data Releases U.S. Data Emerging from Winter Slowdown
The ISM manufacturing index rose in March to 53.7, rebounding from the winter slowdown. The index indicated that production surged while gains in employment slowed. University of Michigan consumer confidence was revised slightly higher in the final March release, but remains at the lowest levels since November. The ADP Employment Report showed 191,400 jobs added in March, slightly below expectations for Friday’s nonfarm payroll release. Pending home sales unexpectedly fell by 0.8 percent in February. Sales have now dropped for eight straight months. Personal income rose 0.3 percent in February, in line with estimates. Personal consumption expenditures grew 0.3 percent in February, the 10th straight monthly increase. The core PCE price deflator was largely flat in February at 1.1 percent year-over-year. Unemployment claims fell to 311,000 from 321,000 for the week ended March 21st, the lowest level this year. Construction spending increased 0.1 percent in February after a 0.2 percent February decline. Non-residential building was responsible for the increase. U.S. factory orders increased 1.6 percent in February after falling the previous two months. Euro Zone Prices Head Lower, Abenomics Momentum Slows
Euro zone economic confidence increased for an 11th straight month in March, reaching the highest level since July 2011. The euro zone wide CPI ticked lower in March to 0.5 percent in the preliminary release, the lowest since October 2009. The euro zone producer price index fell in February, reaching -1.7 percent year-over-year, more than four-year low. Retail sales in Germany were strong in February, rising for a second straight month at 1.3 percent. Germany’s unemployment rate reached a record low of 6.7 percent in March as unemployment decreased by 12,000 people. The U.K. manufacturing PMI continued cooling in March, falling for a fourth consecutive month to 55.3. U.K. retail sales jumped more than expected in February, up 1.7 percent, driven by strong food sales. China’s official manufacturing PMI ticked up to 50.3 in March from 50.2. The report was partly offset by a small downward revision to the HSBC manufacturing PMI, which decreased to 48.0. Japan’s Tankan Survey of large manufacturers rose less than expected in the first quarter, inching up to 17 from 16. The outlook for manufacturers and non-manufacturers dropped after increasing the previous four quarters. Japan’s CPI ticked up in February to 1.5 percent from 1.4 percent, while core CPI was flat at 1.3 percent. Japanese industrial production was worse than expected in February, dropping 2.3 percent, the largest monthly decrease in eight months.

Performance data quoted reflects past performance which cannot guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Investment return and principal value is subject to fluctuations with changes in market conditions such that shares may be worth more or less than original cost when sold. Returns are calculated by subtracting the value of a share at the beginning of the period from the value at the end and dividing the difference by the initial value expressing the result as a percentage change. The calculation assumes that all distributions during the period have been reinvested on the payable dates, at NAV or at market price according to how the returns are labeled. The returns do not reflect broker sales charges or commissions. Net asset value (NAV) is total assets less total liabilities divided by the number of shares outstanding. Pease see final page fopr important information on risks of investing in these funds and other important disclosure.
