About EGMSX

Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Fund Class R6 is a nontraditional bond mutual fund that pursues a total return objective through a flexible, globally unconstrained investment strategy. The fund's primary function is to provide absolute return by investing in a wide array of sovereign asset classes—including foreign currencies, government bonds, and credit markets—across both emerging and developed economies. Its managers use top-down, macroeconomic and political research methods to identify long and short opportunities, aiming for returns largely independent of broad stock or bond market movements. With the ability to invest in diverse geographies and asset classes, the fund is designed to complement traditional core holdings, potentially offering lower beta and volatility, as well as risk-adjusted returns. Its mandate allows active management of exposures depending on market conditions, with allocations responsive to both improving and deteriorating environments. Derivatives feature prominently in its approach, further supporting nuanced portfolio positioning. By emphasizing global diversification and dynamic allocation, this fund occupies a specialized role for investors seeking to mitigate market swings and augment portfolio resilience beyond conventional benchmarks.
