Oil prices fell sharply, weighed down by abundant supplies and further indications of slowing global economic and oil–demand growth. Extreme weather has impacted natural gas prices this year. A cold winter early in the year drew inventory levels to record lows and pushed prices higher, however a relatively mild summer reduced demand for cooling adding to storage. Additionally, surging production from tight gas in the U.S. built inventories faster than expected, driving prices in the quarter from $4.40 to $4.00 per mcf. The commodity price uncertainty was reflected swiftly in the share prices of energy producers. As the crude price fell, companies with the highest costs of production or transportation tended to be impacted the most. The Fund’s overweight exposure to unconventional oil-growth companies, EOG Resources, Diamondback and Continental weighed on performance. Production from tight oil formations in the Permian and Eagleford areas in Texas, or the Bakken in North Dakota rely on solid crude oil prices to drive the development economics. Canadian oil sands producers Suncor, Cenovus and Canadian Natural Resources were also negative contributors. Natural gas prices will largely be determined by the impact of weather in the near term. With inventories still below 5 year averages, a record cold winter like last year will certainly drive prices higher. However, with current forecasts calling for normal winter weather, current inventories should satisfy demand and expectations for unconventional production to continue to outpace demand, natural gas prices could be challenged through the winter. ©2014.

Quartile rankings are determined by Morningstar Research Inc., an independent research firm, based on categories maintained by the Canadian Investment Funds Standards Committee (CIFSC). Quartile rankings are comparisons of the performance of a fund to other funds in a particular category and are subject to change monthly. The quartiles divide the data into four equal segments expressed in terms of rank (1, 2, 3 or 4). This is the Morningstar quartile ranking of Series A units of the Fund as of September 30, 2014. Morningstar ratings are overall ratings reflecting risk adjusted performance as of September 30, 2014. The ratings are subject to change every month. The ratings are calculated for funds with a minimum of 3 years of performance, calculated from the funds' 1 and 3 year average annual returns measured against a 91-day Treasury Bill return with appropriate fee adjustments. The top 10% of the funds in a category receive 5 stars (high); if the funds fall in the next 22.5%,they receive 4 stars (above average); a place in the middle 35% earns a fund 3 stars (neutral or average); those in the next 22.5% receive 2 stars (below average); and the lowest 10% get 1 star (low). Ratings are just one factor to consider when investing. For more information, please see www. morningstar.ca. ® / ™ Trademark(s) of Royal Bank of Canada.
