Carmignac Multi Expertise 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:  Aug 29, 2025.
Fund management team

Market environment

  • Global markets posted strong gains in USD terms, with both equities and bonds advancing. However, the weaker dollar against the euro translated into negative performance in euro terms.
  • US labour market data signalled a slowdown, prompting Fed Chair Jerome Powell at Jackson Hole to hint at possible rate cuts. Markets are now pricing in a 25 bps reduction in September.
  • Political tensions in the US intensified as President Trump dismissed the head of the BLS and moved to oust Fed Governor Lisa Cook, raising concerns about central bank independence.
  • The US yield curve steepened, with long-end yields climbing on worries over Fed independence.
  • In Europe, political risk re-emerged as the French Prime Minister faced a no-confidence vote. France remains a fiscal outlier within the Eurozone, amplifying investor unease.
  • Eurozone yields moved higher, supported by improved growth sentiment, while July inflation data came in line with expectations.
  • Global equities hit new highs, buoyed by reduced tariff-related noise following the 1 August deadline, stronger US GDP growth, and rising expectations of Fed rate cuts in September.
  • The AI trade maintained strong momentum, with Nvidia reaching new all-time highs after robust results.
  • Trade tensions lingered as the US raised tariffs, including a 50% levy on Russian oil imports via India. Commodity markets diverged: oil and gas prices declined, while gold rallied.

Performance commentary

  • In August, our fund delivered a negative performance, in line with its reference indicator.
  • Our strategy was penalised by our portfolio of equities and alternative funds, but nevertheless benefited from its selection of fixed income funds.

Outlook strategy

  • The US shows early signs of stagflation, while Europe’s recovery is likely delayed until 2026.
  • Powell hinted at cuts, but markets overstate the Fed’s willingness to ease. Rising deficits and credibility risks support inflation-linked assets.
  • In Europe, we remain cautious on long sovereigns—particularly France—while maintaining exposure to inflation given elevated real rates.
  • We stay constructive on equities, with high exposure supported by the current environment. Our core allocation targets the US and Asian AI-driven capex cycle, complemented by diversified holdings across regions and sectors.
  • In currencies, we expect the US dollar to weaken further, pressured by fiscal laxity, Fed credibility concerns, and hedging flows.
  • We are maintaining our current fund allocation unchanged.
  • On the equity side, we are invested in Carmignac Portfolio Investissement and Carmignac Portfolio Grandchildren.
  • On the fixed income side, we hold positions in Carmignac Portfolio Credit and Carmignac Portfolio Global Bond strategies.
  • Finally, within our alternatives allocation, we hold investments in Carmignac Absolute Return Europe and Carmignac Portfolio Merger Arbitrage Plus.
