You can track the performance of your superannuation investment every week by viewing the Fund's declared net fund earning rates.
Declared net fund earning rate
The declared net fund earning rate is based on the actual investment performance data for the previous week ending Sunday, less any applicable fees and taxation. However, for the last two weeks of December the declared net fund earning rates will not be finalised until 20-25 business days after 31 December.
The declared net fund earning rate can be positive or negative depending on investment performance. A negative earning rate can result in a reduction in your account balance.

Reserve policy
HOSTPLUS does not have an investment reserve. HOSTPLUS maintains an investment account (formerly notional investment reserve) for the sole purpose of temporarily holding investment earnings and paying investment related expenses until the net earnings can be allocated to members' accounts during the 31 December or 30 June statement periods.
HOSTPLUS does not use the investment account to smooth investment returns from one year to another.
