CEQA Status – Not a Project
RECOMMENDATION
This is an informational report and no City Council action is required.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report is presented in accordance with California Government Code Section 53646 and the
City’s Investment Policy.
As of December 31, 2025, the consolidated portfolio totaled $658.9 million (par value),
including $537.5 million in investments and $121.4 million in liquid accounts. The investment
portfolio was in full compliance with the City’s Investment Policy, and staff projects adequate
liquidity to meet expenditure requirements for the next six months.
Attachments in this report provide detailed cash and investment information, including
portfolio holdings, performance metrics, and related financial summaries.
BACKGROUND
The City’s Investment Policy is reviewed and approved annually by Council and establishes the
framework for managing public funds in accordance with the Prudent Investor Standard under
state law. The policy outlines authorized investment types, maturity and credit quality limits,
diversification requirements, and reporting standards to ensure the objectives of safety,
liquidity, and yield.
The policy also requires the Administrative Services Department to provide the City Council
with monthly and quarterly investment reports, consistent with California Government Code
53646. Monthly reports provide details on investment activity during the period, such as
purchases, calls, redemptions, and maturities. This quarterly report summarizes the City’s
investment holdings, portfolio performance, and compliance with the City’s Investment Policy
and California Government Code.
1, and this report is presented in accordance with the policy
in effect prior to those changes. Future quarterly investment reports will reflect the updated
policy.
Attachment A. The Investment Quarterly Report as of December 31, 2025 is
included in Attachment B. A complete list of current and historical holdings, as well as the City’s
Investment Policy, are available on the City’s website: www.paloalto.gov/investmentreporting.
ANALYSIS
Portfolio Overview
As of December 31, 2025, the City’s consolidated portfolio totaled $658.9 million (par value),
including $537.5 million in investments and $121.4 million in liquid accounts. The investment
portfolio had an average duration of 2.56 years and an average credit quality of AA+. The
duration is closely aligned to Chandler’s recommended positioning of 2.5 years within a one-to-
five-year maturity range.
Graph 1 below illustrates the City’s portfolio by security type, reflecting how funds are
allocated across permitted investment categories.

Table 1 summarizes the portfolio’s maturity structure, which supports the City’s liquidity
objectives and duration strategy.
Investment Performance and Activity
For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the City’s portfolio average market yield was 3.87%
compared to 3.55% for the ICE BofA 1-5 Year U.S. Treasury & Agency Index benchmark. The
portfolio's total return for the quarter was 1.56%, exceeding the benchmark return of 1.35%.
These results reflect the shorter performance period beginning in August 2025, when portfolio
management transitioned to Chandler. Future reports will include longer-term performance
measures as the investment strategy continues to be implemented.
During the quarter, $52.5 million in securities were purchased, $5.5 million were called or
redeemed, and $33.4 million matured.
Table 2 summarizes key portfolio characteristics including maturity, duration, yield, and credit
quality. As of December 31st, the yield for LAIF and the two-year US Treasury were 3.98% and
3.48%, respectively. While these are not direct performance benchmarks, they provide useful
context for evaluating the portfolio’s positioning relative to short-term liquidity returns and
broader market conditions.

Compliance and Credit Standards
The City’s Investment Policy establishes minimum credit rating requirements at the time of
purchase and requires that any securities whose credit ratings fall below the minimum
thresholds be reported to the City Council.
Economic Outlook
The near-term economic outlook remains somewhat unclear due to delays in federal economic
data following the government shutdown. Recently released data indicate inflation remains
moderately above the Federal Reserve’s target, while labor market conditions continue to
soften.
Cash Flow Outlook
Cash flow needs fluctuate over the course of the fiscal year due to cyclical revenue patterns,
with larger inflows from major revenue sources, such as property tax receipts, occurring in the
second half of the year. One-time activities, such as the annual prepayment of pension
obligations and large capital expenditures, also influence these patterns. The City’s investment
strategy aligns with these cycles by timing maturities and maintaining sufficient liquidity to
meet ongoing needs as they occur.
Funds Held by Fiscal Agents and Trustees
The City holds bond proceeds, reserves, and debt service funds with fiscal agents, which are
invested in accordance with the respective bond indentures. The City also maintains a Section
115 Pension Trust with Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS), governed by the City’s
Retiree Benefit Funding Policy.

The near-term economic outlook continues to be distorted by the data delays from the government shutdown. Recently released
government data—reflecting conditions from two to three months ago—indicate inflation remains moderately above the Federal Reserve’s
target, while labormarket conditions have continued to soften.As the flow of economic data normalizes, the Chandlerteam expects further
yield curve steepening as the Federal Reserve moves the policy rate toward a more neutral range. U.S. trade and fiscal policy alsoremain
sources of elevated market uncertainty.
The Federal Reserve's December Federal Open Market Committee meeting concluded withthe thirdconsecutive 25-basis-point rate cut in
2025,lowering the target range to 3.50%–3.75%.However, policymakers remain divided on the path forward. Four Fed governors project
one additional 25-basis-point cut in 2026,anotherfouranticipate no furthereasing, eight expect multiple cuts, andthree call for a potential
rate hike. Chair Jerome Powell notedthat the Fed is now “well placed to wait and see”howlabor market conditions andinflation evolve in
the near term.
The US Treasury yieldcurve steepened in December,as the 2-year Treasury yield dropped2 basis points to 3.48%, the 5-year Treasury was
up 13 basis points to 3.73%, and the 10-year Treasury yield was 15 basis points higher at 4.17%. The spread between the 2-year and 10-
year Treasury yield points on the curve was 17 basis points widerfrom November at +69 basis points at Decembermonth-end. The spread
between the 2-year Treasury and 10-year Treasury yield one year agowas +33 basis points. The spread between the 3-month and10-year
Treasury yield points on the curve was +54 basis points in December versus +21 basis points in November.

The December Nonfarm Payrolls report showed weaker-than-expected job growth, with payrolls rising by 50,000 compared with the
consensus estimate of 70,000. This follows a downwardly revised gain of 56,000 in November. Employment declines were most
pronounced in retail trade and construction, while leisure and hospitality posted the strongest gains. Notably, the unemployment rate
edged down to 4.4% after increasing to 4.6% in November.

The Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS) reported that job openings fell to 7.1 million in November from a
downwardly revised 7.4 million in October. The drop in vacancies, alongside slower hiring, suggests the labor market continues to soften,
though employers remain cautious about laying off workers. The number of openings now roughly matches the number of unemployed
individuals, pointing to a labor market that is approaching equilibrium.

Inflation came in lowerthanexpected in November, withthe ConsumerPrice Index (CPI) rising 2.7% yearover yearand core CPI easing to
2.6%. Notably, both Owners’Equivalent Rent and Rent of Primary Residence contributed to the slowdown in services inflation. Shelter
costs typically lag broader market trends by 12 to 18 months. Services, meanwhile, have remained the dominant driver of inflation
throughout the post-pandemic period. The Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Index for September, released on December 5,
showed headline inflation up 0.3% from August and 2.8% year over year. Core PCE rose 0.2% on the month and 2.8% on an annual basis.

categories posted gains, while motor vehicle sales declined following the expiration of federal tax incentives for electric vehicles, and gas
station sales weakened amid lower fuel prices. The government shutdown may have weighed on consumer confidence regarding jobs,
incomes, andoverall financial conditions, bothcurrent and in the future. The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index declined to
89.1 in December from an upwardly revised 92.9 in November, marking its fifth consecutive monthly drop. Consumers were pessimistic
about both business conditions and the labor market.

The Conference Board’s Leading Economic Index (LEI) declined 0.3% in September, marking its second consecutive monthly decrease after
a revised0.3%drop in August.On a year-over-yearbasis, the index fell 3.3%. According to the Conference Board, weakening expectations
among consumers and businesses contributed most to the LEI’s overall decline. The index continues to signal slower economic growth
through the end of 2025 and into 2026.The Chicago Fed National Activity Index (CFNAI) came in at -0.21 in September, following a
downwardly revised -0.31 in August, signaling that U.S. economic activity remained below its historical trend for the sixth consecutive
month. The three-month moving average ticked down to -0.21 in September from -0.18 in August, reinforcing signs of ongoing below-trend
national growth. Employment-related indicators turned slightly positive, contributing +0.01 in September after a -0.11 result in August.

The Institute for Supply Management’s (ISM) manufacturing index slipped to 47.9 in December, down from 48.2 in November, marking
continued weakness across the sector. Manufacturing activity has now been in contraction for 36 of the past 38 months,as readings
below 50 indicate contraction andthose above 50 signal expansion. The latest decline was driven primarily by pullbacks in the Production
and Inventories components.In contrast, the ISM services index remained in expansion territory, rising to 54.4 in Decemberfrom 52.6 in
November. Respondents attributed the improvement to seasonal strength, though many remained cautious about the potential impact of
tariffs.

The U.S. inflation adjusted gross domestic product (GDP) report demonstrated continued strength in the third quarter, with the first
estimate showing a 4.3% annualized quarter-over-quarterincrease,up from 3.8%in the second quarter. Consumer spending accelerated,
while exports contributed 1.6 percentage points to growth—both key drivers of the quarter’s performance. The stronger-than-expected
result represented the fastest pace of U.S. economic expansion in twoyears. The consensus projection calls for1.1% growth in the fourth
quarter and 2.0% growth for the full year 2025.

The Federal Reserve lowered its benchmark interest rate by a quarterpoint to a target range of 3.50%to 3.75%at its Decembermeeting,
citing concerns about emerging weakness in the labor market. A few policymakers dissented, arguing that tighter monetary policy may
still be warranted to ensure progress on price stability. Beginning December 1,the Fed also haltedits balance sheet runoff, announcing
that principal and interest payments from its holdings will be reinvested in Treasury securities to maintain ample reserves and support
market stability.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
2025 Chandler Asset Management, Inc, An Independent Registered Investment Adviser.
Information contained herein is confidential. Prices are provided by ICE Data Services Inc (“IDS”), an independent pricing source. In the event IDS does not provide a price or if the
price provided is not reflective of fair market value, Chandler will obtain pricing from an alternative approved third party pricing source in accordance with our written valuation
policy and procedures. Our valuation procedures are also disclosed in Item 5 of our Form ADV Part 2A.
Performance results are presented gross-of-advisory fees and represent the client’s Total Return. The deduction of advisory fees lowers performance results. These results include
the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Past performance may not be indicative of future results. Therefore, clients should not assume that future performance of any
specific investment or investment strategy will be profitable or equal to past performance levels. All investment strategies have the potential for profit or loss. Economic factors,
market conditions or changes in investment strategies, contributions or withdrawals may materially alter the performance and results of your portfolio.
Index returns assume reinvestment of all distributions. Historical performance results for investment indexes generally do not reflect the deduction of transaction and/or
custodial charges or the deduction of an investment management fee, the incurrence of which would have the effect of decreasing historical performance results. It is not
possible to invest directly in an index.

Fixed income investments are subject to interest, credit and market risk. Interest rate risk: the value of fixed income investments will decline as interest rates rise. Credit risk: the
possibility that the borrower may not be able to repay interest and principal. Low rated bonds generally have to pay higher interest rates to attract investors willing to take on
greater risk. Market risk: the bond market in general could decline due to economic conditions, especially during periods of rising interest rates.
Ratings information have been provided by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch through data feeds we believe to be reliable as of the date of this statement, however we cannot guarantee
its accuracy.
Security level ratings for U.S. Agency issued mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) reflect the issuer rating because the securities themselves are not rated. The issuing U.S. Agency
guarantees the full and timely payment of both principal and interest.
