Mutual Fund · Currency in USD · Last updated Jul 18, 2026

The fund invests dynamically in a number of global asset classes, including equity/credit, fixed-income, and inflation-sensitive instruments. Equity securities will comprise no more than 75% of the fund's investments. The fund may invest in fixed-income securities with a range of maturities from short- to long-term. It may invest up to 20% of its assets in high-yield securities.

CABNX's Sharpe Ratio of 1.47 indicates that for each unit of volatility, it generates 1.47 units of excess return above the risk-free rate. The ratio is calculated using historical daily returns over the past 12 months (as of Jul 18, 2026).

Sharpe uses total volatility (standard deviation) which includes both upside and downside price movements, making it useful for comparing risk-adjusted returns across different assets. For how to read this number and when it can mislead, see Sharpe Ratio Explained.
