The rally that started in mid-October extended throughout November without affecting major sovereign bonds. Risky assets were supported by a reflation momentum in Japan, China and, prospectively, in Europe. Meanwhile the acceleration of the plunge in crude oil prices triggered a crossasset repositioning, offering numerous thematic trades. CTAs delivered an impressive +7.8% over the month, followed by their ST models peers, the Special Situations and the L/S Equity Long bias funds. Credit strategies lagged over the month.
