JP Morgan Fund Could Rattle Markets Friday
Good question, yogi.
Quickly checking out a few well established moderate allocation (60/40) funds like VWELX, JABAX and FBALX, for example, shows that JHEQX has a better risk/reward profile.
JHEQX has not only a better performance record over the past
1, 3 and 5 years than VWELX and JABAX, but also a significantly lower standard deviation, 8.7 vs.
12.3, respectively.
While FBALX has a slightly better performance, its standard deviation is significantly higher at
13.8.
As a retired investor, I prefer to invest in funds with lower standard deviations if the total returns of similar funds are more or less the same, never mind if they are less.
Good luck,
Fred
The Nightview Fund (Nite) in registration They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Here's the bar chart of the predecessor (privately offered) fund's performance. I don't care what this fund is investing in, I'll pass.

JP Morgan Fund Could Rattle Markets Friday After all, JHEQX has quarterly index-option rolls (options are NOT on individual stock holdings). Fund is huge at $
16+ billion (AUM peak was in 202
1; M* shows outflows in much of 2022 but some inflows in 2023). The current quarterly index option roll is indeed THIS week. So, expect these articles to be recycled with updated info. See this brochure for explanation of index-options overlay to achieve 60-40 effect from all stock portfolio. IMO, why not just go for a real/genuine 60-40 fund?

1 Yogi / I guess I’m even more confused than
@Old_Joe claims to be. I saw it first in
Bloomberg. Appears the same story makes the circuit every few years. I’d swear I’ve seen a Reuters piece dated 2023 - but can’t find it this morning.

Not bad. You’re only off here by 11 months. Yes - a genius you are. I’m in awe.

There were noticeable shifts away from stocks into m-mkt funds. The changes for OEFs + ETFs were based on a total AUM of about $32.35 trillion in the previous month, so +/-
1% change was about +/- $323.5 billion. Also note that these changes were from both fund inflows/outflows & price changes. #Funds #OEFs #ETFs #ICI
