Market environment

  • In February, markets were driven by rising concerns over AI disruption, renewed policy uncertainty and escalating geopolitical tensions. Anthropic’s new agentic AI release fueled fears of disintermediation and potential labor market impacts, while a US Supreme Court ruling on reciprocal tariffs added legal uncertainty and growing US–Iran tensions increased volatility toward month-end.
  • The economic backdrop continued to show signs of broadening global growth. Business surveys improved across several regions, while inflation pressures moderated further in the US, UK and Japan. This combination of steady activity and easing price dynamics supported markets, even as investors reassessed the sustainability of the current artificial intelligence investment cycle.
  • In the United States, equity markets were driven by heightened volatility among companies perceived as lagging in the AI race, alongside a clear rotation out of mega-cap technology stocks. While earnings overall remained resilient, investors grew more cautious about the disruptive implications of AI and the uncertain payback from heavy AI-related investment spending, putting pressure on leading growth stocks. The S&P 500 edged lower, with performance diverging markedly across sectors. More defensive and value-oriented areas, including materials, utilities, and energy, delivered relative outperformance.
  • In the euro area, equities moved higher, benefiting from improving activity indicators and continued disinflation. The European Central Bank kept rates unchanged, reiterating its confidence in the inflation trajectory. Sector performance reflected the global rotation, with energy and real estate outperforming, while parts of technology and financials lagged.
  • Emerging markets outperformed developed markets over the month, supported by strength in North Asian semiconductor exporters and firmer commodity prices. EM Asia delivered robust gains, driven primarily by hardware and infrastructure beneficiaries of the AI cycle, despite ongoing fragilities in China.

Performance commentary

  • In February, the Fund delivered a negative absolute performance and underperformed its reference indicator.
  • The main detractor was the Financials sector, particularly financial infrastructure names such as S&P Global and ICE, which underperformed due to valuation driven derating and sector rotation, despite fundamentals remaining solid.
  • The Technology sector also detracted, as investors reassessed the risk reward profile of AI driven growth. Rising capital expenditure plans, uncertainty around AI returns, and concerns over disruption to traditional software models led to profit taking, especially among mega cap and data heavy technology stocks.
  • Nvidia declined post earnings, as strong results were no longer sufficient to sustain the highly optimistic AI narrative.
  • The largest positive contributor during the month was Consumer Staples, which continued to post strong returns since the start of the year.
  • Defensive holdings such as Procter & Gamble, Colgate, and Unilever were the main contributors, benefiting from the rotation toward stable, cash generative companies and away from growth stocks.
  • Given ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, we continue to maintain a meaningful allocation to Consumer Staples within the Fund.

Outlook strategy

  • During this volatile month, we made several portfolio adjustments.
  • We significantly reduced our position in Novo Nordisk following continued share price weakness after the failed drug trial, alongside increasing competitive pressure from Eli Lilly, which continues to gain market share.
  • We continue to actively manage our Technology exposure, as we observe a high level of dispersion across the sector.
  • In this context, we reassessed our positioning in areas potentially disrupted by AI. We reduced exposure to selected software names by exiting Capgemini and trimming SAP. Conversely, we added to Salesforce and RELX, as we believe AI will act as an enabler that enhances their business models and long term performance.
  • During the month, we also added back to Microsoft and Nvidia following the recent correction, as both companies offer strong visibility on customer demand and supply chains.
  • With manufacturing PMIs moving back into expansion, signalling improving industrial activity, we increased our position in Kingspan, which is well positioned to benefit from a recovery in construction.
  • In the current environment, earnings visibility and balance sheet strength are likely to be increasingly rewarded.
  • The portfolio remains positioned to benefit from long term secular growth trends such as AI and digital transformation, while retaining the flexibility and discipline required to navigate an uncertain macroeconomic backdrop.
