The Fund’s second best performer was Baxalta, Inc. (NYSE:BXLT) which climbed over 23 percent and added 68 basis points of return to the Fund during the quarter. The spin-off from Baxter rebounded nicely during the quarter and shares were boosted on takeover speculation. A bid from rival Shire came late in the quarter and we anticipate the share to move closer to that takeover bid in the coming months.
