The Ocean Park Tactical Bond Strategy seeks to produce satisfying long-term returns while limiting downside risk.
It uses a tactical approach to move between three uncorrelated asset classes: High Yield Corporate Bonds (HYCB), U.S. Treasuries, or Cash. Tactical Bond Strategy accounts are diversified among typically eight or more High Yield Corporate Bond mutual funds. When each underlying HYCB mutual fund hits its proprietary Sell level, we will move the relevant assets temporarily into a long-term Treasury bond fund (provided the Treasury fund is in an uptrend) until the next set of Buy signals in the HYCB funds. If the Treasury fund is not in an uptrend, we will instead move temporarily into a money-market fund until either the HYCB funds or Treasury fund gives a new Buy signal.
The foundation of our investment process begins with two very simple goals:
Whether it be a diversified or single asset strategy, all Ocean Park programs are managed with the same goal-based approach.
† The primary benchmark for the Ocean Park Tactical Bond Strategy is the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which is a broad-based flagship benchmark that measures the nvestment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated fixed-rate taxable bond market. The secondary benchmark is the ICE Bank of America Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Master II Index, which tracks the performance of U.S. dollar denominated below investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the U.S. domestic market. One cannot invest directly in an index or category and unmanaged index or category returns do not reflect any fees, expenses, or sales charges.
