Carmignac Portfolio Long-Short European Equities fund performance
Take a look at the Fund's performance supported by our Fund managers’ market commentary and strategy insight.
Our monthly comments
Data as of: 30 Apr 2026.Performance commentary
- In April, the fund delivered a positive performance, driven by the Long book. Our short book delivered a negative absolute performance but a positive alpha.
- On the Long side, we scaled up our semiconductor positions early in the month, following the significant pullback of the sector in March.
- AMD, ASML and TSMC made a strong contribution to performance, as the continued shortage on the memory side led to continued price increases and a positive outlook for semiconductor spending.
- We have been very active across the semiconductor supply chain over the past two years, with the memory segment being our largest contributor.
- On the Short side, our top contributor was Alstom, which we have held in our portfolio since the beginning of the year.
- The company issued a profit warning and withdrew its 2027 guidance. The shares dropped around 30% in a single day. We have kept our short position as we await the May results.
- We unwound most of the macro and index hedges we had implemented in March.
Outlook strategy
- The net exposure of the strategy rose from neutral to the 20s during the second part of the month.
- We remain constructive on the Long side in industries such as luxury goods, specialty engineering, specialty chemicals, medical technology, aerospace and defense, and classifieds.
- We remain constructive on Europe in 2026, as the fiscal stimulus and low rates provide an attractive tailwind.
- Germany has removed the fiscal drag which has weighted on Europe for more than a decade, and the upcoming defense and infrastructure historic investment plan will have a profound impact on the overall region.
- Our portfolio remains focused on stock specific and idiosyncratic drivers, rather than macro plays.
- On the short side, we continue to find many new names in the Consumer and Industrials spaces with poor balance sheets and deteriorating fundamentals, bringing tightened margins and profit warnings.
