Fund Focus: Angel Oak Multi- Strategy Income Fund; ANGLX
---Barren Oak fund, long term poor performance ---Blackjack Oak fund, aggressive fund; but with poor management and returns ---Maul Oak fund, poor management style, psuedo hedge fund style ---Possum Oak fund, performance played dead for too many reporting periods
BUT..... ---Basket Oak fund, global/world allocation ---Bottomland Post Oak fund, agri centered holdings ---Cow Oak fund, sector oriented, related diary products ---Cross & Forkleaf Oak, multi-sector funds ---Pin Oak fund, micro cap ---Punk Oak fund, only invests in companies formed during restricted time period in the 1980's ---She Oak fund, sector fund; related to all products/companies, feminine ---Runner Oak fund, aggressive; all asset, long/short...you name it, fund does it
Lastly, two fund names that probably should not be considered: ---Weeping Willow and Whiplash Willow funds
I mentioned this in a previous thread but non agency debt is also the primary reason Dan Ivasyn of PONDX fame had prospered since 2009. While I can't predict or forecast any better than anyone else it sure seems the boat has already sailed for bonds of most stripes and colors. Junk and floating rate have been the stalwarts YTD.
