Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform last year?

  • For the reporting period ended July 31, 2026, the Fund's Class K Shares returned 4.14%.

  • For the same period, the Fund’s benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 2.71% and the ICE BofA 6-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index, returned 3.89%.

What contributed to performance?

Asset allocation—namely, positions in U.S. Treasuries, commercial paper, and investment-grade corporate bonds—was the primary contributor to the Fund’s absolute performance. The Fund's cash position had no material impact on performance. 

What detracted from performance?

At a time of positive returns for the broader fixed-income market, no aspect of the Fund’s positioning was a significant detractor.
