portfolio companies contributed to the strong performance of the Fund. Of note, the investment in

Outlook
With the new political climate, there has been a fundamental and important change in
the stock market, especially with respect to bank and financial service companies’ future prospects.
The fund manager's outlooks falls into three broad macro themes:
1) Expanding economy
2) Reduced regulation
3) Increase in Mergers and Acquisitions
In addition, micro themes within these three macro themes should add even more impetus for the
three portfolio companies to potentially outperform their benchmarks and offer possible additional
upside for 2017.
