Market environment

  • Middle East tensions remained elevated in August. Renewed hopes of US-Iran talks briefly pushed oil prices lower at the start of the month, but no agreement materialised and tensions resurfaced towards month-end. Brent ultimately ended near USD 90/bbl, while European natural gas prices rose by around 18%.
  • US activity remained resilient, with business surveys firmly in expansionary territory. However, the labour market showed signs of weakening, while inflation remained elevated, complicating the Federal Reserve’s policy outlook.
  • US fiscal and monetary policy remained in focus. High financing needs and rising borrowing costs continued to weigh on the long end of the Treasury curve. The Treasury’s decision to significantly expand long-dated bond buybacks helped yields retrace from their intra-month highs. At Jackson Hole, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh struck a hawkish tone, pushing the probability of a September rate hike to around 65%.
  • Euro area momentum improved, with business surveys pointing to a continued expansion in activity. At the same time, persistent inflationary pressures, reinforced by the sharp rise in European gas prices, maintained upward pressure on rate expectations.
  • Against this backdrop, sovereign yields moved higher overall, with a flattening of the US curve. The US 2-year yield rose by 5bps and the 10-year by 2bps, while German 2-year and 10-year yields both increased by 12bps. European credit remained resilient, with investment-grade spreads broadly unchanged and the iTraxx Xover tightening by 13bps.

Performance commentary

  • Over the month, the Fund delivered a negative performance, underperforming its reference indicator.
  • Interest rate strategies were the main detractor from performance, as the broad rise in global sovereign yields, particularly in Europe, weighed on the portfolio’s long positions at the front end of the European curve.
  • Credit carry strategies contributed positively, supported by exposure to high-quality issuers in our preferred energy and financial sectors, as well as by our exposition to Collateralized loan obligations (CLOs).
  • Conversely, the portfolio’s defensive credit positioning detracted from performance, as protection through iTraxx Xover weighed on returns amid a tightening in credit spreads.

Outlook strategy

  • The portfolio’s modified duration remained stable at 2.8 over the month. We added exposure to Italian real rates and took profits on our US yield curve steepeners.
  • We remain primarily invested in short-dated, high-quality corporate bonds, offering an attractive source of carry while maintaining a reduced beta to market volatility.
  • On rates, the portfolio maintains a long position concentrated at the front end of the euro yield curve, where markets now price around three additional ECB rate hikes over the next year amid renewed inflation concerns following tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and the sharp rise in gas prices. We also maintain a short position in French government bonds amid persistent political and fiscal uncertainty.
  • We maintain long US and euro area breakeven inflation positions, reflecting resilient activity on both sides of the Atlantic and the recent repricing in energy markets.
  • Finally, the portfolio’s yield-to-maturity remains attractive at 4.2%, providing a regular source of carry and a first line of defence during periods of correction in interest rates and/or credit spreads.
