JHCR is designed to provide a reliable income stream while safeguarding capital and ensuring liquidity. It invests primarily in high-quality bonds, focusing on maintaining investment-grade ratings to manage risk. The fund emphasizes bonds such as corporate notes, mortgage-backed securities, and US government securities, deliberately avoiding foreign securities and lower-rated debt to keep risks in check. The fund managers approach utilizes comprehensive research to identify undervalued bonds, balancing sector and security allocations. While JHCR generally follows the broader trends in bond markets regarding maturity and duration, it may adjust for defensive reasons when necessary. Additionally, the fund uses derivatives for hedging and risk management without employing leverage. Up to 10% of its assets may be held in cash or cash equivalents, allowing for adaptability in shifting market environments. This strategy aims to ensure a stable income while navigating risks effectively.
