Way To Go, Girl ! Kathleen Gaffney At $1 Billion Tops Bond World

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: Kathleen Gaffney spent 15 years as understudy to star bond manager Dan Fuss at Loomis Sayles & Co. A year-and-a-half after starting her own fund, she’s beating her old boss and the rest of the bond world.

Gaffney’s Eaton Vance Bond Fund, which opened three months after she left Loomis Sayles in October 2012, returned 19 percent over the past year, better than 99 percent of peers, according to data from Morningstar Inc

    I'm waiting to see how she performs in a down market, especially with all of those equity-like holdings in the fund.

    @Bitzer: If she's beating them in a up market, what to say she can't beat the boys in a down market ?
