Invesco Rochester® Municipal Opportunities Fund Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) underperformed its style-specific index, the Custom Invesco Rochester Municipal Opportunities Index.
New municipal issuance reached $135 billion, 11% higher than the first quarter of 2025, likely driven by significant US infrastructure needs and reduced federal spending.
The Fund has a constructive outlook on duration and is maintaining duration exposure, following the steepening of the municipal yield curve in 2025.
