    Words of Wisdom

    Six years ago, many investors were way out over their skis.

    Giant financial institutions were brought to their knees. The

    survivors pledged to themselves that they would forever bemore careful, less greedy, less short-term oriented Can we

    say when it will end? No. Can we say that it will end? Yes.

    And when it ends and the trend reverses, here is what we can

    say for sure. Few will be ready. Few will be prepared.

    MCCM Tactical Asset Class Positioning May 2013

    Asset Class Stance Commentary

    Domestic Equity = Valuations high; Profits Challenged; Defense best

    International Equity + Japan momentum, ECB supporting Europe, EM ?

    Opportunistic Equity + Long/Short strategies should extract dual Alpha

    Absolute Return = ZIRP still challenging; True Arbitrage attractive

    Real Estate + EM Development; Distressed, Niche Strategies

    Energy & NR = Public markets battling $, Private markets best

    Private Equity ++ Growth Capital in EM, Small LBO & VC best

    Domestic FI = Volatility rising, Some value in Deflation hedge

    Enhanced FI = Direct Lending Attractive, Spread Product at risk

    Current MCCM Tactical Positions

    Real Estate = EM development; Mezzanine Lending, Public RE

    Energy & NR ++ Reserve Acquisition, Global Shale Plays, Alt Energy

    Private Equity ++ Growth Capital in EM, Small LBO & Venture Capital

    Domestic FI = Deflation risk has made long duration attractive

    Enhanced FI = Direct Lending Attractive, Credit strategies at risk
