The June quarter was the best quarter in more than 20 years for the US market, following a horrid March.
The Global Growth Fund was up 1.3% in June.
The fund was up 2.9% in June. The market was in consolidation mode after large gains in April and May. The ASX small ordinaries index was up 3.5% by 10 June, before finishing the month 2.2% lower.
The fund now has about an 8% position in fixed interest, and we are looking to increase this further over the next couple of months. Exposure to the other Pie funds has continued to benefit the Conservative Fund, as all were up significantly during the quarter.
