Portfolio Manager Jeffrey Rosenkranz Speaks with GOBankingRates on Interest Rates and Inflation
As Jeffrey A. Rosenkranz, Portfolio Manager noted, “The Fed has not cut rates yet because doing so would have been premature and if inflation becomes entrenched, it is much harder to extinguish, so the FOMC has had to err on the side of caution and hold rates higher for longer.”
“In addition, because such a large percentage of existing mortgages were fixed at such low rates, the normal long and variable lags that monetary policy operates with look to be even longer this cycle, so the Fed has had to work harder and longer to influence behavior and take some of the air out of the economy and the labor market,” he added.

It is possible to lose money by investing in a fund. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Investors should consider a fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about a fund. To obtain a prospectus, visit www.sheltoncap.com or call (800) 955-9988. A prospectus should be read carefully before investing. Mutual fund investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.
Credit-related instruments typically decrease in value when interest rates increase. Concentration in a small number of issuers increases the risk that one issuer could have a large adverse impact on the Fund’s return. Borrowing and frequent trading could increase the Fund’s operating expenses. High-yield bonds involve greater risk of default, and may be more volatile and less liquid than investment grade securities. Subordinated and unsecured loans may be disproportionately affected by default and downgrade. Foreign investments may be adversely affected by currency fluctuations, lower liquidity, tax regulation, and political instability. Derivatives can be highly illiquid and difficult to unwind.
The Fund’s short positions may equal up to 100% of the Fund’s net asset value. Short sales theoretically involve unlimited loss potential since the market price of securities sold short may continuously increase.
