Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
For the fiscal year ended  May 31, 2026,  the Fund  delivered total returns of 4.69% (based on net asset value).
WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCED PERFORMANCE
The Fund’s results reflected the income generated by its core government holdings alongside a complement of selected credit securities, including mREIT exchange-traded debt and preferred shares. The Federal Reserve’s three rate cuts in the second half of 2025, which brought the target range to 3.50%–3.75%, supported the exposure to mREITs which tend to benefit from lower funding costs on their borrowings.
The Fund’s primary test came in late February and March 2026. U.S.-led strikes on Iran beginning February 28 led to a tactical closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the maritime chokepoint through which roughly a fifth of the world’s petroleum passes. Brent crude spiked from around $72 to nearly $120 per barrel in a matter of days, and the inflationary implications pushed the 10-year Treasury yield from approximately 3.96% to a multi-month high near 4.48%.
The Fund’s U.S. Treasury holdings had some sensitivity to the rapid rate  selloff, though our durations in the Fund were held at low levels for defensiveness. Our exchange-traded credit products and preferred shares can carry some beta to markets as well and experienced a temporary mark-to-market drawdown during the stress. As the conflict moved toward a provisional resolution and markets stabilized into the late spring, those positions recovered, and the income they generated throughout the episode provided extra ballast when prices wobbled.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2026, the Fund delivered total returns of 5.20% (based on net asset value).
WHAT FACTORS INFLUENCED PERFORMANCE
The Fund’s results were driven by a disciplined commitment to short-duration positioning in a year that tested experts in predicting the path of interest rates. We built the portfolio around very short-maturity U.S. Treasuries and high-quality short-term credit, which let us capture attractive front-end yields in a fairly flat curve while keeping interest-rate sensitivity low.
Developments that shaped the macroeconomic  backdrop
The Federal Reserve resumed cutting in the second half of 2025, lowering its target range by 75 basis points across its September, October, and December meetings to 3.50%–3.75%. A softening labor market, underscored by a record 43-day government shutdown that clouded the economic data into November, gave policymakers room to ease.
Volatile tariff policy continued throughout 2025 and into 2026 and kept inflation stubbornly above the Fed’s 2% target. That limited how far policymakers were willing to go in cutting rates and kept the front end of the curve well-anchored rather than collapsing, which helped preserve the income on our short-dated holdings.
A sharp geopolitical shock caused by the US/Iran conflict and subsequent oil supply constraints during late February through May 2026 sent rates broadly higher, a move our short-duration stance was specifically built to withstand.
