Stock selection was the main driver of performance, particularly in the technology and industrial sectors.
The strengthening of certain convictions in April amplified the fund's rebound (Nvidia, Amazon, Alphabet).
Our diversified positions along the Taiwanese technology value chain also contributed to the rebound (TSMC, Elite Material).
Nvidia's recent results confirmed the trend toward investment in artificial intelligence. However, following the sharp rebound, we are maintaining a highly diversified position across the value chain.
We took profits on stocks such as Nvidia to strengthen our exposure to emerging markets and financials.
We took advantage of the decline in volatility to buy back long-dated index put options.

Market environment
The recovery was fueled in particular by easing trade tensions and a solid earnings season.
The US rebound was mainly driven by large technology companies. More specifically, more than two-thirds of the gains came from just seven equities: Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta, Broadcom, Amazon, Tesla and Alphabet.
Taiwan (+12.5%) and Korea (+7.8%) stood out with particularly strong gains.
