Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

The following discussion compares the performance of the Fund to a custom blend of 40% Russell 1000 Value Index, 20% Bloomberg US Corporate High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index, 20% Bloomberg US Mortgage Backed Securities Index and 20% Bloomberg Emerging Markets Seasoned ex Aggregate/Eurodollar Index (the “Blended Index”) to show how the Fund’s performance compares to the returns of similar investments for the reporting period. See the Average Annual Total Returns table below for the returns of the Fund and related indexes, including the S&P 500 Index which tracks the stock performance of 500 of the largest companies listed on stock exchanges in the U.S., and the Bloomberg US Universal Bond Index which covers USD-denominated, taxable bonds that are rated either investment grade or high-yield. The Fund seeks to provide current income and long-term growth of income. Capital appreciation is a secondary objective. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by primarily investing in both equity and fixed-income securities that have relatively high current income potential.

 

Top Contributors to Performance

  • Bullet

    Equity security selection in the Information Technology, Materials, and Health Care sectors had a positive impact on Fund relative performance as did overweight allocations to the Information Technology and Communication Services sectors, and an underweight to the Health Care sector. IPO investments also contributed positively to Fund relative performance.

  • Bullet

    Duration management and security selection in mortgage-backed and emerging market securities contributed positively to Fund relative performance.

  • Bullet

    Derivative instruments, including options, credit default swaps, and interest rate futures to manage duration and volatility, had a positive impact on Fund relative performance.

Top Detractors from Performance

  • Bullet

    Equity security selection in the Financials, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials sectors negatively impacted Fund relative performance as did sector allocations in the Consumer Discretionary and Industrials sectors.

  • Bullet

    Within fixed income, sector allocation with an overweight to investment-grade corporates and treasuries had a negative impact on Fund relative performance as did yield curve positioning.

  • Bullet

    An overweight allocation to equity securities and an underweight allocation to fixed income securities had a slight negative impact on Fund relative performance.

Performance Past Does Not Indicate Future [Text] Keep in mind that the Fund’s past performance is not a good predictor of how the Fund will perform in the future.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

The following discussion compares the performance of the Fund to a custom blend of 40% Russell 1000 Value Index, 20% Bloomberg US Corporate High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index, 20% Bloomberg US Mortgage Backed Securities Index and 20% Bloomberg Emerging Markets Seasoned ex Aggregate/Eurodollar Index (the “Blended Index”) to show how the Fund’s performance compares to the returns of similar investments for the reporting period. See the Average Annual Total Returns table below for the returns of the Fund and related indexes, including the S&P 500 Index which tracks the stock performance of 500 of the largest companies listed on stock exchanges in the U.S., and the Bloomberg US Universal Bond Index which covers USD-denominated, taxable bonds that are rated either investment grade or high-yield. The Fund seeks to provide current income and long-term growth of income. Capital appreciation is a secondary objective. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by primarily investing in both equity and fixed-income securities that have relatively high current income potential.

 

Top Contributors to Performance

  • Bullet

    Equity security selection in the Information Technology, Materials, and Health Care sectors had a positive impact on Fund relative performance as did overweight allocations to the Information Technology and Communication Services sectors, and an underweight to the Health Care sector. IPO investments also contributed positively to Fund relative performance.

  • Bullet

    Duration management and security selection in mortgage-backed and emerging market securities contributed positively to Fund relative performance.

  • Bullet

    Derivative instruments, including options, credit default swaps, and interest rate futures to manage duration and volatility, had a positive impact on Fund relative performance.

Top Detractors from Performance

  • Bullet

    Equity security selection in the Financials, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials sectors negatively impacted Fund relative performance as did sector allocations in the Consumer Discretionary and Industrials sectors.

  • Bullet

    Within fixed income, sector allocation with an overweight to investment-grade corporates and treasuries had a negative impact on Fund relative performance as did yield curve positioning.

  • Bullet

    An overweight allocation to equity securities and an underweight allocation to fixed income securities had a slight negative impact on Fund relative performance.

Performance Past Does Not Indicate Future [Text] Keep in mind that the Fund’s past performance is not a good predictor of how the Fund will perform in the future.
