Market environment

  • September was an eventful month for investors. The Federal Reserve began the cycle of interest rate cuts with a 50bp cut.
  • The less optimistic tone of the Japanese authorities and the new stimulus measures in China helped to ease investors' concerns and support a sharp rise in equities until the end of the month.
  • China's efforts to stabilise its troubled property market should increase demand for industrial metals and critical minerals, which are key products for major mining companies.
  • As a result, the Bloomberg Commodity Index recorded a positive performance over the month.

Performance commentary

  • Our Fund recorded a negative performance in absolute and relative terms over September.
  • The stocks that contributed negatively to our performance were companies linked to the theme of green energy enablers, with Samsung and ASML being our main detractors.
  • We benefited from our overweight position and rigorous stock selection in the energy sector.
  • Our biggest contribution this month came from the green energy providers theme.
  • LG Chem was our main contributor to performance after securing a contract to supply cathode active materials.

Outlook strategy

  • During September, we readjusted the weight of equities in the renewable energy sub-theme by reducing the weight of TPI Composites.
  • Our strong conviction in semiconductors remains intact.
  • We believe that our diversification across our sub-themes will enable us to navigate better in this market environment.
