Market environment

  • Global equities rallied strongly in April 2026. The ceasefire in the Middle East was the main catalyst behind the equity rally, although tangible progress remained limited throughout the month. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz continued to keep risks to global energy markets elevated.
  • The risk-on move was concentrated in tech-heavy markets—such as the Nasdaq and parts of Southeast Asia—supported by AI momentum and strong earnings in the technology sector, particularly toward the end of the month.
  • Emerging Markets outperformed, led by AI supply-chain hubs such as Taiwan and South Korea, while Europe and Latam underperformed due to their limited exposure to the technology sector.
  • Most companies reported 1Q26 earnings in April. In the US, the earnings season proved very strong across all sectors. The four largest spenders on AI computing infrastructure (Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta and Amazon) broadly reassured markets regarding their outlook and investment plans. In Europe, earnings beats were more modest; although margins remained resilient, European firms turned more cautious on the outlook amid ongoing war-related uncertainty.

Performance commentary

  • Over the month of April, the fund had a strong absolute performance and outperformed its reference indicator, mostly driven by our allocation to industrial Tech & digital Infrastructure and Tech Materials. The month marked a record month for semiconductor names which demonstrated the strongest month for the sub sector in years.
  • Semiconductor names like Broadcom, SK Hynix, and TSMC were our largest contributors in April with all three names delivering record breaking Q1 earnings, significantly above expectations, with each occupying a different but complimentary node in the AI supply chain (custom silicon, memory and advanced manufacturing)
  • We continued to see strong performance across our off-benchmark Tech Material names in Asia. Nitto Boseki, the Japanese materials company producing glass fibre used in semiconductor packaging, continued to demonstrate strong returns over the month. Similarly, All Ring Tech, the Taiwanese manufacturer of high-end automation and process equipment for semiconductor packaging was also among our largest contributors.
  • On the other hand, our software exposure suffered over the month driven by the deepening debate about whether AI destroys value for these incumbent companies. On the back of these concerns, Servicenow, Salesforce and Workday were among our worst performers.

Outlook strategy

  • In April, we trimmed some of our semiconductor names like Micron and Gudeng to add to ASML.
  • We also reduced our overall software weight to from 16% to 11% by reducing weight to names like Salesforce, Workday and Gitlab on fears of AI disruption.
  • Over the month we continued building our position initiated the previous month in Schneider Electric.
  • In the current environment we believe it is important to look at all segments of Technology and capture entry points in areas we think demonstrate undervalued growth as well as diversify our holdings.
