Community College League of California
Executive Summary
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Active Manager Highlights
Artisan Small Cap Growth Fund
Artisan Small Cap Growth returned 5.7% for quarter and outperformed the Russell 2000 Growth by 130 basis points. Artisan continued to recover underperformance from the surprise Trump rally. The largest contribution to the quarter’s strong absolute and relative performance came from the strategy’s technology holdings.
Causeway International Value Equity
Causeway International Value Equity had a strong quarter on an absolute basis, but trailed on a relative basis. Causeway gained 5.0% for the quarter compared to the 6.1% return of the MSCI EAFE Index. The underperformance was driven by stock selection across a range of sectors.
Western Asset U.S. Core
Western Asset U.S. Core returned 1.7% for the quarter and continued to outperform the Barclays Aggregate Index which returned 1.4%. Duration positioning was the largest contributor to performance as Western continued to benefit from an overweight exposure to the long end of the yield curve.

Evaluating Donald Trump’s Economic Impact
Timing Matters
∙ Fiscal stimulus, while promising, is more of a 2018 story.
∙ Meanwhile, interest rates are rising NOW.
∙ Inflation pressures were building anyway, and are not necessarily dependent on future stimulus.
∙ Will rising rates and a strong dollar choke off economic growth before fiscal stimulus can kick in?

Looking Ahead
∙ Still short on details.
∙ Markets have jumped to their own conclusions.
∙ What will move markets from here are changes to today’s expectations.
∙ Significant scope for policy disappointment/delay.
∙ Rising rates/dollar mean the economic clock is ticking.

Surprising election results will shape global economy
• Trump + Republicans maintain a majority:- House of Representatives - Senate (simple majority of 51/100)
• We know “Candidate” Trump, his policy proposals and his character. But very little is known about “President” Trump.
• Steven Mnuchin (Treasury), Wilbur Ross (Commerce) indicate pragmatic approach, but rhetoric against China risks escalation.

• Unilateral executive power to take trade actions or reverse regulations but for many of his major economic proposals (fiscal, immigration, healthcare) he will need to compromise with Congress and “reconciliation” likely to be used. Page 76 of 194

Meketa Investment Group Monetary Policy & The Federal Reserve
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group 1
What is Monetary Policy?
Monetary policy is when a country’s central bank (e.g., the Federal Reserve) controls the supply of money for the purpose of supporting economic growth and stability.
This typically occurs through the raising and lowering of interest rates
Lowering interest rates can have a very stimulative effect on economic activity.
Cheaper to pay off existing debts
Cheaper to take out new loans
The “present value” effect on financial assets

The Mechanics
The Fed officially sets what is called the “Fed Funds Rate.”
Rate at which banks lend to each other overnight
This is the only interest rate that the Fed officially “sets”
All other rates (mortgages, autos, credit cards, etc.) are determined by the market, depending on risk/maturity
While they don’t necessarily follow the Fed Funds Rate exactly, they generally move in the same direction

The Global Financial Crisis and The Fed
There are very differing views on how the Fed acted during the Global Financial Crisis of 2008-2009.
Pro-Fed Case:
No one could have seen the crash coming
The Fed acted quickly and decisively to restore market confidence that was quickly deteriorating
In “bailing out” financial institutions, the Fed avoided a second Great Depression
The stock market has now reached new all-time highs, so clearly this was the right course of action
Anti-Fed Case:
Some people did see the crash coming, and the Fed should be held to a higher standard
They put out the fire, but they also lit the match in the first place
Bailing out everyone has led to serious “moral hazard” issues
The stock market is not reflective of the overall economy
The “lender of last resort.”
Liquidity vs. solvency

Reaching The Limits of Interest Rate Policy
For the past 30 years, the Fed’s response to any and all economic/market problems has been to lower interest rates.
But during the Global Financial Crisis, they finally hit zero
In other words, they finally exhausted their main tool for stimulating the economy

Quantitative Easing (“QE”)
After the Fed Funds Rate finally hit zero, and economic growth was still below target, the Fed needed to find a new method for stimulating the economy.
While short-term interest rates were effectively zero, long-term interest rates were a different story.
And long-term interest rates are what more directly impacts the economy (mortgages, auto loans, etc.)

Quantitative Easing (“QE”)
Quantitative Easing is the process through which the Fed “prints” money to buy Treasury bonds from banks, in an effort to stimulate lending.
There is no “new” money created, it is just an asset swap (bonds for cash)
So what’s the point?
Buying bonds increases their price, and lowers their yields (interest rates)
Rather than just hold cash, banks should want to lend it out into the economy to earn a return
But the Fed can’t force banks to lend, and it can’t force people to borrow.
Due to a lack of supply and demand for loans, the money gets “stuck” in the banking system

Quantitative Easing (“QE”)
Quantitative Easing also “works” through the “portfolio rebalancing effect.”
When the return on “risk free” assets is so low, it incentivizes investors to take more risk than they otherwise would
This leads to a rise in all “risky” assets, including the stock market
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
In the short-term, it can be a very good thing
But it may just be blowing the next bubble

The “Wealth Effect”
In theory, as the stock market goes up, people feel wealthier.
If people feel wealthier, they spend more money
This creates economic growth, which ultimately benefits everyone
But there is no historical evidence that this is actually true.
Only a very small percentage of the wealthiest Americans hold a significant amount of stocks
Potentially exacerbates income inequality issues

Capital Markets Outlook

Capital Markets Outlook1
Investors are faced with three primary issues in the near-term: 1) historically low bond yields, 2) the potential for a transition into a rising rate environment, 3) higher volatility going forward as global political, fiscal, and monetary policy uncertainty remains high.
Risk across markets measured by our Systemic Risk metric remains subdued; while this is positive in the short term, many serious medium term risks loom large.
In agreement with this measure, the widely cited VIX index which is at historical lows.
Risk environments can change quickly and caution is warranted especially given high valuations and political risk (North Korea/Brexit Negotiations/etc.).
The price of the U.S. stock market relative to ten-year average earnings has trended up after the financial crisis, and remains above its historical average (26.7x versus 20.7x).
Within U.S. Equity markets, relative valuations for companies based on both size (small vs. large cap) and value (growth vs. value) remain within a reasonable range.
Developed international and emerging market stocks are trading at lower valuations than U.S. stocks.
These valuations have remained low because of sovereign debt issues, weak economic growth in Europe, and a cyclical slowdown in emerging economies.
Both of these measures have seen sustained positive trends as the issues and economic fundamentals mentioned above have improved in recent months.
At 2.3%, the yield on the ten-year Treasury remained far below its post-WWII average of 5.9%.
As of July 4, spreads for both high yield and investment grade corporate bonds were below their respective historical averages (3.3% and 0.9%).

Systemic Risk and Volatile Market Days1
Systemic Risk, which measures risk across markets, is important because the more contagion of risk that exists between assets, the more likely it is that markets will experience volatile periods.
After a volatile start to the year, our Systemic Risk measure has returned to reasonable levels. While the number of volatile days can differ, this indicates that the next month should be in the lowest 14%.
1 Source: Meketa Investment Group, as of June 30, 2017. Volatile days are defined as the top 10 percent of realized turbulence which is a multivariate distance between asset returns.

The U.S. Cyclically Adjusted P/E1 and Long-Term Equity Returns
One of the most powerful predictors of long-term equity returns has been the 10-Year Cyclically Adjusted Price to Earnings Ratio (CAPE).
This fundamentally driven measure is highly correlated with future returns, which are shown in the chart above using the CAPE metric on a reverse scale.
1 Source: PE data are from Robert Shiller’s website from 1927 - 1946; S&P and Bloomberg 1946 – present. S&P 500 equity returns are from Bloomberg for the entire period. Data is from December 31, 1927 to July 4, 2017.

As of July 4, the 10-year cyclically adjusted P/E ratio for the S&P 500 was 26.7x, which is well above its post-WWII average of 20.7x.
Historically, a P/E ratio at this level has led to below average future returns over a 10 year horizon.

Small Cap P/E vs. Large Cap P/E1
The P/E ratio of small cap stocks (Russell 2000) relative to large cap stocks (Russell 1000) has been a consistent indicator of the relative valuation between companies based on their size.
At 99%, this relative valuation metric currently indicates that, on average, small size companies are just barely cheaper than larger size companies.

Ten-Year Treasury Yields1
As of July 4, the ten-year treasury yield was 2.3%, which is well below the post-WWII average but above the 1.8% level of one year ago.
The path of central bank interest rates remains at the center of market focus.
The Federal Reserve and implied market forecasts differ considerably. This suggests that the market remains unconvinced about the probability and magnitude of future rate rises.

Global Macroeconomic Outlook
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Global Economic Outlook1
The IMF continues to forecast an increase in global growth, although the drivers have changed. Their projections for 2017 increased for Japan, Europe, and China and declined for the U.S. due to lower fiscal stimulus than previously expected. They continue to highlight risks in the medium-term including high market valuations, debt levels in China, and potential monetary tightening globally.
The IMF forecast for 2017 global growth is 3.5% and 3.6% for 2018, unchanged from their prior estimates.
In advanced economies, 2017 projections remain the same (2.0%) and declined slightly for 2018 (1.9% versus 2.0%). Lower expectations for U.S. fiscal stimulus are expected to weigh on growth, while reduced political risks should help in Europe.
Growth is expected to increase in emerging economies to 4.6% in 2017 and to 4.8% in 2018, led by commodity importers. China is projected to have similar growth in 2017 (6.7%) as in 2016 and to slow to 6.4% in 2018, while in India growth is forecasted to increase in 2017 (7.2% versus 7.1%) and to 7.7% in 2018. Russia and Brazil are both expected to emerge from recessions this year.
Inflation expectations are trending down in the short-term and, overall, remain below the long-term averages.

Global Macroeconomic Outlook
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Global Economic Outlook (continued)
We could be moving into a period of coordinated monetary tightening across central banks. Fiscal stimulus in the U.S. remains possible going forward, but its form has increasingly become uncertain. The balance of fiscal and monetary policy globally remains a key issue.
In June, the Federal Reserve increased rates for the fourth time by 0.25% to a range of 1.00% to 1.25%. One more rate increase is expected this year. It is also likely that they will begin reducing their balance sheet of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities later this year by not reinvesting maturing proceeds.
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) continues to maintain its stimulative efforts, making no changes to the scale of their asset purchase program, keeping bank deposit rates negative (-0.1%), and continuing to target a 0% yield on the 10-year government bond. They did note, though, improvements in their projections for the economy.
Improving economic conditions and recent statements by Mario Draghi have led investors to speculate that the European Central Bank (ECB) could begin reducing its bond-purchasing program next year. They have committed to continuing purchases through the end of this year and beyond, if needed, and to keeping interest rates low until their bond buying is done. Inflation levels remain below the ECB’s target though, and are projected to stay there, which could lead to continued support.
The People’s Bank of China (PBOC) left interest rates unchanged at their June meeting, despite the Fed’s recent rate increase. Their benchmark rate has remained unchanged at 4.35% since October 2015, but they surprised markets in March when they followed the Fed’s announced rate hike by increasing short- and mid-term interbank rates. Corporate debt levels, a hot property market, capital outflows, and the relationship with the new U.S. administration are key issues for the world’s second largest economy.
Several issues are of primary concern: 1) the potential for simultaneous monetary tightening globally; 2) uncertainty related to the U.S. economy and policies; 3) declining growth in China, along with uncertain fiscal and monetary policies; 4) risks related to the U.K.’s exit from the European Union.

Global Macroeconomic Outlook
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Macroeconomic Risk Overviews
Low Oil Prices Although oil prices significantly rallied from their bottom, they remain historically low. An extended period of low oil prices will hurt countries such as Iran, Russia, and Venezuela that depend heavily on oil export revenues. Although OPEC has extended their production cuts into 2018 to help prices, increased production from the U.S. shale industry acts as a counter force. The risk of increased geopolitical tensions also exists with depressed oil prices.
European Imbalances The crisis is rooted in structural issues in the Eurozone related to the combination of a single currency combined with 17 fiscal authorities. In the broader European Union, tensions exist, as highlighted in the U.K. referendum last year, related to policies on immigration, laws, and budgetary contributions. Additional countries leaving either group, particularly the Eurozone, could set a dangerous precedent, especially if they ultimately experience growth. The massive influx of refugees into Europe from the Middle East and North Africa exacerbates economic stress.
Potential Failure of Abenomics
Japan is engaged in a historic stimulus program, referred to as “Abenomics” to fight its decades of deflation. The plan includes monetary, fiscal, and structural components. If Japan overshoots with its policies, or dramatically changes them, it could prove disruptive to markets and growth.
Europe/Japan Aging Demographics
In Japan and Europe, birth rates have declined for decades, resulting in populations becoming older and smaller relative to the rest of the world. These demographic trends will have negative long-term impacts on GDP growth and fiscal budgets, amplifying debt problems.
Major Geopolitical Conflicts
Tensions related to North Korea’s nuclear aspirations continue to grow, with the consequences of any misstep high. The Syrian crisis remains another key issue. Since taking office, the new U.S. administration launched airstrikes on a Syrian airbase in retaliation for chemical attacks in the country. The North Korea and Syrian issues have complicated relations with China and Russia, their respective allies. Continued antiterrorist efforts against ISIS remains another unresolved issue. Although the city of Mosul in Iraq was recently taken back from ISIS, they continue to be a threat in the region and elsewhere.

Global Macroeconomic Outlook
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Macroeconomic Risk Overviews (continued)
China Fiscal and Monetary Policy Uncertainty
The process of transitioning from a growth model based on fixed asset investment by the government, to a model of consumption-based growth will be difficult. Similar policies as China’s decision to unexpectedly devalue their currency or to support stock prices could prove disruptive and decrease confidence in China’s government. Capital outflows remain a key issue in China. They have made some efforts to tighten regulations to stem outflows, but higher rates and growth in the U.S., and elsewhere, could add to outflow pressures. China’s abandonment of its support of the yuan, and a resulting major devaluation of the currency, could prove particularly disruptive to global markets and trade. The hot property market and the growing mountain of debt in the corporate sector remain other key risks.
Normalization of Global Monetary Policy
After the Global Financial Crisis, major central banks injected massive amounts of liquidity into the market by purchasing bonds from banks (i.e., quantitative easing). They also reduced short-term interest rates to record lows. Already the U.S. central bank has ended its bond-buying program, started to increase interest rates, and started to discuss reducing its balance sheet. Although other central banks, like Japan (BOJ) and Europe (ECB), continue to stimulate their respective economies discussions have started about reducing stimulus in the near-term. If major central banks start to tighten their policies at the same time it could lead to higher rates, less liquidity, and overall lower economic activity.
Resource Scarcity The growing world population, urbanization, and a growing middle class, particularly in emerging economies, could all lead to a scarcity of resources, including food, water, land, energy, and minerals. As demand continues to grow and supply declines, certain commodity prices may skyrocket, hurting the living standards of many and increasing the risk of geopolitical conflicts.
Rising Populist and Antitrade Sentiment
The votes last year in the U.S. (presidential election) and U.K. (“Brexit”) highlight the growing populist/antitrade sentiment. Stagnant wages, growing inequality, and the perception of jobs being lost abroad are key contributors. Reducing trade and imposing tariffs would likely lead to inflation, reduced efficiencies, and heightened tensions between countries.
High Expectations for U.S. Fiscal Stimulus
Post U.S. presidential election, hopes have been high for new policies lowering taxes, increasing infrastructure spending, and reducing regulations. Investors have placed their bets based on the assumption that these policies would come to fruition creating the potential for disappointment. The recent failed attempt to pass revised healthcare legislation illustrates that there could be some bumps with moving forward with the new administration’s agenda.

Global Macroeconomic Outlook
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Positive Macroeconomic Trends Overviews
Low Oil Prices Although oil prices recently increased, they remain low historically. Low oil prices will likely have a positive impact on global growth, particularly for energy importers like China, Japan, and India. Consumers should benefit from lower oil prices, in the form of lower prices for gasoline and heating oil.
Growth of Emerging Markets Middle Class
In emerging economies, the size of the middle class is projected to grow significantly over the next twenty years. This growing middle class should increase consumption globally, which in turn will drive GDP growth and create jobs.
Multilateral Global Trade
Increased trade and investment, and access to foreign capital and export markets for corporations, should lead to greater global growth. The recent U.S. presidential election and the U.K.’s vote to leave the European Union illustrate growing anti-trade sentiment, which could create a headwind to trade going forward.
Improvements in Education/Healthcare
Literacy rates and average life spans have increased globally, particularly in emerging economies. Higher literacy rates will drive future growth, helping people learn new skills and improve existing skills. When people live longer, it increases incentives for long-term investments in education and training, resulting in a more productive work force and ultimately more growth.
Stabilization of Japanese and European Economies
Despite some recent talks of tightening monetary policy, the Japanese and European central banks continue their respective asset purchase programs and maintain interest rates at historic lows. Unemployment has come down in both areas and Japan has moved from deflation to inflation. Continued improvements in economic conditions in Europe and Japan could also be beneficial for global trade. U.S. investors could particularly benefit from these conditions if the dollar remains weak.
Global Fiscal Stimulus Given the slow growth globally, and the likely tightening of monetary stimulus, there could be a shift to fiscal stimulus. With interest rates still low, borrowing for infrastructure investments is affordable. If productive investment options are not available, reducing taxes is an option. Increased fiscal stimulus could help growth while reducing the reliance on monetary policy. The new U.S. administration’s proposed policies on cutting taxes and increasing spending on infrastructure could have a major impact if passed.

Geopolitical Risks
We are in a period of heightened geopolitical tensions and uncertainties particularly related to North Korea’s nuclear objectives.
A variety of other geopolitical risks remain unresolved including:
The ongoing war in Syria, including tensions between the U.S. and Russia.
The continued threat of terrorism, including the complications it creates in Europe related to the refugee crisis.
Continued antiterrorist efforts against ISIS.
These unresolved issues have the potential to disrupt markets, economies, and trade if they flare-up. This would likely result in a flight to safe haven assets like Treasuries, U.S. dollars, and gold.

Global Monetary Policy1
Currently the U.S. central bank is alone in its tightening policies, but others have discussed pursuing a similar path going forward.
Over time, particularly since the Global Financial Crisis, major central banks have dramatically increased their balance sheets to levels close to 40% of their aggregate GDP.
Going forward, less demand from central banks for bonds could lead to higher interest rates and less demand for credit.

Major Currency Values versus the U.S. Dollar1
In the second quarter, the U.S. dollar continued its decline as the Fed maintained its slow approach to monetary tightening and the U.S. Senate picked-up the struggle with new healthcare legislation.
Developed foreign equities particularly benefited from the decline in the dollar during the quarter.
Continued signs of subdued growth, dovish monetary policy, and a stalled presidential agenda could put further pressure on the dollar.

Oil1
As oil prices recovered from their recent lows, so did shale-drilling activity in the U.S., creating a form of economic stimulus.
OPEC recently agreed to extend their output cuts until 2018 in an effort to decrease supply and increase prices.
Higher prices could lead to further shale production, though, and weigh on OPEC’s objectives.

U.S. Financial Conditions1
Financial conditions in the U.S., represented by dollar strength, equity market performance, and long-term rates, have improved despite the Fed’s tightening.
High equity market valuations and increased credit demand in the low rate environment seem to be causing the Fed concern and could lead to them continuing on their tightening path, despite softening data.

U.S. Monetary Policy1,2
Despite softening data, the U.S. Federal Reserve hiked short-term interest rates again by 0.25% in June to a range of 1.0% to 1.25% and provided insight into plans to reduce their $4.5 trillion balance sheet.
In prior cycles, the Fed reduced rates by over 5% to stimulate growth, a luxury they would not have now, if we enter another recession.
As Janet Yellen’s first term comes to an end, there have been discussions of appointing a chairperson who would use a rules based approach to policy (e.g., Taylor Rule), that is currently calling for a much higher rate.

U.S. Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Growth1
The initial reading of second quarter GDP came in at 2.6% in the U.S., more than double the 1.2% level of the prior quarter. Over the trailing year, GDP grew at a 2.1% rate.
A rebound in consumer spending was the main driver of higher growth during the quarter.

Unemployment declined slightly in the second quarter (-0.1%) finishing at 4.4%, far below its 10% peak.
Although wages have increased from their lows, the rate of growth has recently leveled off and remains well below prior recoveries.
Despite low unemployment not leading to wage inflation, the Fed continues to tighten. We will see if they are right about wages catching-up.

After a recent increase, inflationary pressures slowed in the second quarter, with CPI falling from 2.4% to 1.6%.
Despite the decline in inflation, and the softening of other economic data, the Fed remains committed to moving forward with its monetary tightening, running the risk that they could overshoot.

Spread Between 10-year and 2-year U.S. Treasuries1
The U.S. yield curve flattened further in the second quarter, with the ten-year Treasury yield falling from 2.39% to 2.30% and the two-year yield increasing from 1.25% to 1.38%.
If the yield curve continues to flatten, this could particularly hurt banks, a sector that has done well recently in light of talks of lower regulations.
Banks are a critical part of the economy and any headwinds to the sector could weigh on overall economic activity.

Japan and Europe Economic Conditions1
The U.S. central bank has been increasing interest rates and considering reducing its balance sheet, while the European and Japanese central banks continue to maintain loose monetary policies.
Unemployment has declined from its highs in Europe and Japan, and Japan has moved from deflation to inflation.
Given improving economic conditions and a lower risk of deflation, there is speculation that we could be moving into a period of coordinated central bank tightening.

Global Macroeconomic Outlook
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Emerging Market GDP1
Growth in emerging economies remains uneven and has trended downward since 2010.
Russia and Brazil are projected to emerge from recession in 2017, while China’s economy is forecasted to continue to slow going forward. India remains a bright spot, with higher growth forecasted at a level above China.
The recent fall in the U.S. dollar, and signs of stabilization in China, has led to an increase in foreign investment in emerging markets, stronger returns for U.S. investors, and reduced the burden on countries with large dollar denominated debt.
Any signs of higher rates and economic activity in the U.S., a return to antitrade rhetoric, or heightened geopolitical tensions could reverse the flow of the recent “hot money” into emerging markets and weigh on returns.

China Stimulus1
In addition to the recent stimulus provided by the increase in shale activity, China has also provided support.
After a difficult 2015, they attempted to slow capital outflows and stabilize the economy by launching a stimulus program comparable to the one in the Global Financial Crisis. This not only benefited their economy, but others through higher imports.
China seems to be pulling back though with the potential to create issues particularly here in the U.S. if we see the effects of the “reflation” trade wane.

Global Macroeconomic Outlook
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Summary
Four primary concerns face the global economy: 1) the potential for simultaneous monetary tightening globally; 2) uncertainty related to the U.S. economy and policies; 3) declining growth in China, along with uncertain fiscal and monetary policies; 4) risks related to the U.K.’s exit from the European Union.
Since the Global Financial Crisis, central banks world-wide have attempted to support markets and the economy through low interest rates and bond-purchasing programs (i.e., quantitative easing). Total balance sheets have close to doubled since the GFC and are near 40% of aggregate GDP. If we move into a period of a collective reduction in the global central bank balance sheet we could see higher rates, less liquidity, and overall slower economic activity.
The U.S. has experienced largely stable growth since the end of the financial crisis, but at levels below prior recoveries. Inflationary pressures increased recently, but have since subsided and other economic data has softened. In light of this, the Federal Reserve has continued to increase rates and discuss plans of reducing its balance sheet possibly to create room for easing if we hit another recession. The risk is that they could push the economy back into recession early without a lot of policy tools at their disposal.
Given China’s size and contribution to global growth, a slowing of its economy could have a meaningful impact, particularly on countries that depend on its trade. The growing debt, particularly in the corporate sector, remains a key concern. Another devaluation of the yuan could disrupt capital markets, weigh on domestic demand, and hurt countries with competing exports.
The decision of the U.K. to leave the EU further weighs on the fragile recovery in Europe. The U.K.’s negotiation of trade deals will be a key issue, with a wide range of potential outcomes. Uncertainty related to the outcome of negotiations should weigh on foreign investment and consumption. Any additional moves to leave the EU, or the Eurozone, could be disruptive to markets and growth.

Glossary
Prepared by Meketa Investment Group
Credit Risk: Refers to the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security may default (i.e., the issuer will be unable to make timely principal and/or interest payments on the security.)
Duration: Measure of the sensitivity of the price of a bond to a change in its yield to maturity. Duration summarizes, in a single number, the characteristics that cause bond prices to change in response to a change in interest rates. For example, the price of a bond with a duration of three years will rise by approximately 3% for each 1% decrease in its yield to maturity. Conversely, the price will decrease 3% for each 1% increase in the bond’s yield. Price changes for two different bonds can be compared using duration. A bond with a duration of six years will exhibit twice the percentage price change of a bond with a three-year duration. The actual calculation of a bond’s duration is somewhat complicated, but the idea behind the calculation is straightforward. The first step is to measure the time interval until receipt for each cash flow (coupon and principal payments) from a bond. The second step is to compute a weighted average of these time intervals. Each time interval is measured by the present value of that cash flow. This weighted average is the duration of the bond measured in years.
Information Ratio: This statistic is a measure of the consistency of a portfolio’s performance relative to a benchmark. It is calculated by subtracting the benchmark return from the portfolio return (excess return), and dividing the resulting excess return by the standard deviation (volatility) of this excess return. A positive information ratio indicates outperformance versus the benchmark, and the higher the information ratio, the more consistent the outperformance.
Jensen’s Alpha: A measure of the average return of a portfolio or investment in excess of what is predicted by its beta or “market” risk. Portfolio Return- [Risk Free Rate+Beta*(market return-Risk Free Rate)].
Market Capitalization: For a firm, market capitalization is the total market value of outstanding common stock. For a portfolio, market capitalization is the sum of the capitalization of each company weighted by the ratio of holdings in that company to total portfolio holdings; thus it is a weighted-average capitalization. Meketa Investment Group considers the largest 65% of the broad domestic equity market as large capitalization, the next 25% of the market as medium capitalization, and the smallest 10% of stocks as small capitalization.
Market Weighted: Stocks in many indices are weighted based on the total market capitalization of the issue. Thus, the individual returns of higher market-capitalization issues will more heavily influence an index’s return than the returns of the smaller market-capitalization issues in the index.
Maturity: The date on which a loan, bond, mortgage, or other debt/security becomes due and is to be paid off.

Prepayment Risk: The risk that prepayments will increase (homeowners will prepay all or part of their mortgage) when mortgage interest rates decline; hence, investors’ monies will be returned to them in a lower interest rate environment. Also, the risk that prepayments will slow down when mortgage interest rates rise; hence, investors will not have as much money as previously anticipated in a higher interest rate environment. A prepayment is any payment in excess of the scheduled mortgage payment.
Price-Book Value (P/B) Ratio: The current market price of a stock divided by its book value per share. Meketa Investment Group calculates P/B as the current price divided by Compustat's quarterly common equity. Common equity includes common stock, capital surplus, retained earnings, and treasury stock adjusted for both common and nonredeemable preferred stock. Similar to high P/E stocks, stocks with high P/B’s tend to be riskier investments.
Price-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: A stock’s market price divided by its current or estimated future earnings. Lower P/E ratios often characterize stocks in low growth or mature industries, stocks in groups that have fallen out of favor, or stocks of established blue chip companies with long records of stable earnings and regular dividends. Sometimes a company that has good fundamentals may be viewed unfavorably by the market if it is an industry that is temporarily out of favor. Or a business may have experienced financial problems causing investors to be skeptical about is future. Either of these situations would result in lower relative P/E ratios. Some stocks exhibit above-average sales and earnings growth or expectations for above average growth. Consequently, investors are willing to pay more for these companies’ earnings, which results in elevated P/E ratios. In other words, investors will pay more for shares of companies whose profits, in their opinion, are expected to increase faster than average. Because future events are in no way assured, high P/E stocks tend to be riskier and more volatile investments. Meketa Investment Group calculates P/E as the current price divided by the I/B/E/S consensus of twelve-month forecast earnings per share.
Quality Rating: The rank assigned a security by such rating services as Fitch, Moody’s, and Standard & Poor’s. The rating may be determined by such factors as (1) the likelihood of fulfillment of dividend, income, and principal payment of obligations; (2) the nature and provisions of the issue; and (3) the security’s relative position in the event of liquidation of the company. Bonds assigned the top four grades (AAA, AA, A, BBB) are considered investment grade because they are eligible bank investments as determined by the controller of the currency.
Sharpe Ratio: A commonly used measure of risk-adjusted return. It is calculated by subtracting the risk free return (usually three-month Treasury bill) from the portfolio return and dividing the resulting excess return by the portfolio’s total risk level (standard deviation). The result is a measure of return per unit of total risk taken. The higher the Sharpe ratio, the better the fund’s historical risk adjusted performance.

Standard Deviation: A measure of the total risk of an asset or a portfolio. Standard deviation measures the dispersion of a set of numbers around a central point (e.g., the average return). If the standard deviation is small, the distribution is concentrated within a narrow range of values. For a normal distribution, about two thirds of the observations will fall within one standard deviation of the mean, and 95% of the observations will fall within two standard deviations of the mean.
STIF Account: Short-term investment fund at a custodian bank that invests in cash-equivalent instruments. It is generally used to safely invest the excess cash held by portfolio managers.
Style: The description of the type of approach and strategy utilized by an investment manager to manage funds. For example, the style for equities is determined by portfolio characteristics such as price-to-book value, price-to-earnings ratio, and dividend yield. Equity styles include growth, value, and core.
Yield to Maturity: The yield, or return, provided by a bond to its maturity date; determined by a mathematical process, usually requiring the use of a “basis book.” For example, a 5% bond pays $5 a year interest on each $100 par value. To figure its current yield, divide $5 by $95—the market price of the bond—and you get 5.26%. Assume that the same bond is due to mature in five years. On the maturity date, the issuer is pledged to pay $100 for the bond that can be bought now for $95. In other words, the bond is selling at a discount of 5% below par value. To figure yield to maturity, a simple and approximate method is to divide 5% by the five years to maturity, which equals 1% pro rata yearly. Add that 1% to the 5.26% current yield, and the yield to maturity is roughly 6.26%.
5% (discount) =
1% pro rata, plus 5.26% (current yield)
= 6.26% (yield to maturity) 5 (yrs. to maturity)
