Market environment

  • Global equities rose 4.1% (EUR) in October, led by a narrow group of AI-driven growth stocks, while defensive names lagged.
  • Gains were supported by easing US–China trade tensions and a solid US earnings season, with 82% of companies beating expectations.
  • In the U.S., economic activity remains strong, with leading indicators still in expansion territory. Despite the data gap caused by the shutdown, inflation re-accelerated in September, again exceeding the 3%-mark year-on-year.
  • As expected, the Fed cut rates by 25 bps to a 3.75–4.00% range, keeping a supportive stance while remaining cautious on further easing.
  • In the euro area, activity indicators improved, with both composite and services PMIs returning to expansion territory, driven by a rebound in Germany. Q3 GDP rose +0.2%, slightly above expectations.
  • Japan outperformed, buoyed by pro-Abenomics policies from new PM Sanae Takaichi and a weaker yen aiding exporters.
  • Emerging markets (+6.1%) advanced, led by Korea and Taiwan on positive trade developments with China and semiconductor strength.
  • The S&P 500 gained 4.1%, recovering from trade-driven volatility as strong earnings and AI optimism lifted sentiment.
  • European equities trailed peers amid French political noise and lower AI exposure, though autos and luxury goods gained on improving Chinese demand.

Performance commentary

  • The Fund delivered strong absolute performance and outperformed its reference indicator.
  • Most of the performance was driven by stock selection within the technology sector, with contributions evenly balanced between developed and emerging markets.
  • SK Hynix and TSMC were among the largest contributors to performance
  • Alphabet also added positively, supported by a robust earnings release. The company is entering an expansion phase driven by artificial intelligence: search activity is benefiting from more complex and conversational queries, while enhanced recommendation models on YouTube continue to support strong growth in watch time. In addition, Google Cloud is gaining traction with larger contracts and new client wins.
  • The healthcare sector also contributed positively, led by Cencora, Thermo Fisher, and Lantheus.
  • Our portfolio was nevertheless somewhat penalized by our market hedges.

Outlook strategy

  • In AI, we see both bubble warnings and genuine opportunities: while some unprofitable firms trade on lofty promises, true enablers such as Alphabet, Microsoft, and Amazon are making substantial, self-funded investments to protect and enhance their core businesses.
  • Our focus in AI is on companies with growing profits, not those built on speculative expectations.
  • Beyond the AI frenzy, many high-quality companies have lagged despite solid fundamentals. Strengthening positions in these undervalued names helps balance excess market optimism while maintaining exposure to growth.
  • Attractive opportunities are emerging in sectors like financials (excluding banks) and traditional industrials, as well as among resilient European companies whose profits remain robust despite compressed valuations.
  • Even within technology, some software leaders—such as ServiceNow, Salesforce, Atlassian, and GitLab—now look undervalued after sharp declines, despite their essential role in clients’ operations and high switching costs.
  • In this context, we continue to actively manage our net equity exposure that stands around 60-70%.

I always strive to fully exploit the Fund’s dynamic nature. The return of inflation is the return of the economic cycle where truly active management will stand out even more as the recent years have shown.
