Or Fund. They had a capital F. 'Who did?!' The PR people, Credit Suisse people. It's the launch of a new fund. 'Oh. Is this the Wednesday morning PR email, back by popular demand?' Ha!

London, January 24, 2017 - With the Credit Suisse (Lux) Multi-Trend Fund, Credit Suisse Asset Management offers investors a cost-efficient way to benefit from rising interest rates and high equity valuations. The trend-following fund strives to generate positive returns in market environments of both falling and rising equity, bond, currency and commodity prices.
Fair enough. 'Following the first monetary tightening by the US Federal Reserve in December, boss, it has become increasingly likely that -' What?! What are you going on about, Voice? 'I'm just doing the rest of the email.' Oh, and that's your job, is it? 'Well ...' Christ! The way you were talking, I thought maybe you knew something about it. 'No.' Leave it to the professionals, man. Okay -
Following the first monetary tightening by the US Federal Reserve in December, it has become increasingly likely that we will see further increases in borrowing costs and accordingly falling bond prices in 2017. This presents investors with the challenge of achieving sufficient risk diversification for their portfolios, with many key equity benchmarks already at record highs. With the launch of the Credit Suisse (Lux) Multi-Trend Fund, which exploits trends worldwide on a multitude of individual markets in all important investment classes, Credit Suisse wants to provide an alternative for this particular market environment. The UCITS-compliant mutual fund has the ability to generate positive returns in both rising and falling markets. In order to achieve its investment goal, the fund invests exclusively in highly liquid and widely available instruments, such as index or currency futures. It receives its buy or sale signals by observing market trends over short-, medium- and long-term time horizons. This observation process allows the fund to participate in long-term - as well as to react to short-term - market developments.

Risks
There is a risk that assets don't perform as expected, irrespectively of trends in traditional equity and pension markets.
The fund offers no capital protection.
The fund invests in futures, which leads to transaction costs.
The investment strategy can lead to frequent reallocations, which can incur trading costs.

Okay, okay. Well ... that's done. Thank God! I'm not really in the mood this morning. Have you see the weather? 'It's all foggy.' A great start to summer, I don't think. 'Eh?!' Yeah. Exactly!
Anything else? 'Yes!' No, no, no. There's nothing else. 'Oh.' Well, there might be something else. However, I'm not writing about it, if there is ... something else, you dig? Life is too short, and I've got a guitar to play.
