C8/GreenBlue Good Governance US Equity L/S Certificate up 1.9% in June 2020

It was another strong month for the Certificate, which rose by 1.9% in June, as the S&P 500 continued to recover ground from Feb/Mar falls. This took the performance of the Certificate to +4.3% since inception, on the 21 January. The ‘Good Governance’ risk premia has shone through in the past few months, and we note similar outperformance in the backtest during 2008/09 (see chart below) and in other down years for US stocks.

Case in point was the debate around the definition of “transitory”. It might seem intuitive that trees don’t grow to the sky, but Yellen and crew somehow wanted to argue that that was why they had in fact been right all along in their argument that Covid era inflation was “transitory”. Yes, Janet, you were right that, like all things, this too did pass. Read more →
