The Funds investment objective is total return.
The fund pursues total return through flexible allocation across domestic and foreign securities, fixed-income instruments including high-yield debt and mortgage-backed securities, derivatives, and commodities exposure, with commodity investments held through a wholly-owned Cayman Islands subsidiary. The fund invests indirectly through registered investment companies managed by Eaton Vance affiliates rather than holding most securities directly. The portfolio will maintain an average investment-grade credit rating but may hold individual securities rated below investment grade. Extensive use of derivatives to adjust duration, hedge risks, and implement systematic strategies may create economic leverage.

The outer band is exposure held short — written against the portfolio rather than part of it, which is why it sits outside the ring and why the two are never netted into one figure.
How it has done
ETSIX share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 3.59%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
Jun 2026 and Jul 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
The 4 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.50% | +9.89% | +28.41% | +28.43% | -2.02% | |
| 2.24% | +9.04% | +25.41% | +23.53% | -2.03% | |
| 1.24% | +10.06% | +29.24% | +29.88% | -1.86% | |
| 1.74% | +9.60% | +27.42% | +26.85% | -2.03% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 6.35pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.27pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
