Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance. Performances are net of fees (excluding possible entrance fees charged by the distributor). The return may increase or decrease as a result of currency fluctuations, for the shares which are not currency-hedged.
US growth continued its soft landing. European data revealed sluggish growth.
Central banks around the world took different paths with the ECB, Swiss National Bank and Bank of Canada cutting interest rates, but the Bank of England and Federal Reserve holding tight.
Political news was a source of volatility, in Europe where early elections were called in France, and in a few emerging countries such as India, Mexico and South Africa.
US stock markets set new records, once again supported by technology companies.
Interest rates remained volatile but lower US inflation allowed a slight easing. However, political fears in Europe caused spreads between German and other Eurozone yields to widen.
Performance commentary
The Fund turned in a positive performance, beating its reference indicator.
Our exposure to risky assets (equities, credit) was the main performance driver.
Technology stocks along the AI value chain (TSMC, Nvidia, Alphabet, Broadcom) were among the top contributors.
Our low modified duration, especially in Europe and Japan, shored up the Fund’s relative performance.
However, our currency management (Latam, Yen, Swiss franc) proved costly.
Outlook strategy
With equity markets starting to price in lots of good news, we introduced some hedging through options in particular.
We also added some hedging to the credit portfolio.
In recent months we have diversified our positions in the major beneficiaries of AI and healthcare along the value chain, where valuations are more attractive.
We are keeping modified duration low, with a cautious approach at the long end of the curve.
Below are the key figures for the Fund, which will give you a clearer idea of the Fund's equity and bond management and positioning.
