Still bullish on consumer staples, industrials and tech

The Island Light Sector Rotation portfolio was updated for the month of June as part of our regular rebalancing. The strategy, which employs a sophisticated new algorithm for potentially capturing market momentum in an optimized portfolio of US sectors, is the latest in a series of innovative dynamic portfolio models offered by Island Light.

For the month of July, we increased our exposure to the US consumer staples, industrials, materials, and technology sectors, and reduced exposure to utilities, financials and consumer discretionary sectors. We remain overweight utilities relative to the S&P index weights.

The following table reflects the performance of our strategy, the S&P and the 9 sector ETFs that comprise our investment universe, through June 30, 2014:
