This is a well-respected quarterly ranking and is widely used by institutional asset managers and investors. Informa Financial Intelligence is part of Informa plc, a leading provider of critical decision-making solutions and custom services to financial institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Large Cap Blend<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Large Cap Blend strategy returned 7.95% versus the S&amp;P 500 Index return of 9.07% in the fourth quarter. In pursuing this strategy, WCM invests in medium and large public companies which are generating excess free cash flow and whose equity securities are trading at a discount to our estimation of intrinsic value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>4-Star Category \u2013 The Large Cap Blend strategy was awarded a Top Gun 4-Star Rating, meaning it had an r-squared of 0.80 or greater relative to the style benchmark for the recent five-year period. Moreover, returns must have exceeded the appropriate style benchmark for the three latest three-year rolling periods. The top ten returns for the latest three-year period then become the 4 Star Top Guns.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tactical Fixed Income<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Tactical Fixed Income strategy returned 1.24% versus the Merrill Lynch U.S. 3-month Treasury Bill Index return of 0.46% in the fourth quarter. In pursuing this strategy, WCM attempts to earn a high income oriented return with a moderate level of risk by tactically allocating across a broad range of fixed income sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>1-Star Category \u2013 The Tactical Fixed Income strategy was awarded a Top Gun 1-Star rating, meaning it had one of the top ten returns for the quarter in its respective universe.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ultra-Short Fixed Income<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Ultra-Short strategy invests primarily in corporate and municipal bonds and has a duration of approximately 1.27 years and a weighted average yield-to-worst of 2.29%. In pursuing this strategy, WCM invests in investment grade corporate bonds, municipal bonds, asset-backed securities, mortgagebacked securities, and high yield bonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>1-Star Category \u2013 Strategy had one of the top ten returns for the quarter in their respective universe.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>2-Star Category \u2013 Strategy had one of the top ten returns for the one-year period in their respective universes.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>3-Star Category \u2013 Strategy had one of the top ten returns for the three-year period in their respective universes<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The complete list of PSN Top Guns and an overview of the methodology can be located on <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/psn.fi.informais.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/psn.fi.informais.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Winthrop Capital Management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Winthrop Capital Management is an SEC registered investment advisor with expertise in the management of fixed income and equity portfolios.
