Market environment

  • The US economy remains resilient. The Composite PMI rose to 58.4, its highest level since 2021, while the labour market remained solid, with 162,000 jobs created and unemployment at 4.1%.
  • The Fed remains hawkish in the face of persistently high inflation. It raised rates by 25bps to 3.75–4.00% and maintained a firm stance, as inflation reached 3.4% and underlying price pressures reaccelerated.
  • In Europe, growth is picking up, but inflation is returning alongside it. The Composite PMI rose to 53.1, while inflation reached 3.8%, driven in particular by energy prices. The ECB responded with a 25bp rate hike, taking its deposit rate to 2.50%.
  • Japan continues its monetary policy normalisation. The BoJ raised rates by 25bps to 1.25%, while Tokyo inflation climbed back to 2.7%, leaving the door open to further tightening.
  • The bond market sell-off intensified across the yield curve. The US 10-year yield rose by 54bps to 5.29%, compared with a 26bp increase in the Bund yield to 3.59%, while 2-year maturities recorded moves of a similar magnitude.
  • France is now paying a more visible fiscal risk premium. The 10-year yield reached 4.75%, while the OAT-Bund spread widened by around 40bps amid a deterioration in the country’s fiscal and political outlook.
  • Beneath the headline equity indices, dispersion has become extreme. AI continued to drive the Nasdaq higher (+3.2%), while the S&P 500 edged lower and the equal-weighted index significantly underperformed. In Europe, the Stoxx 600 fell by 2.4%, while Taiwan and Korea outperformed on the back of strength in semiconductors.
  • US monetary tightening and Warsh’s hawkish tone supported the dollar. By contrast, the euro remained under pressure amid tensions in France, while gold corrected as real yields rose and the US dollar strengthened.

Performance commentary

  • Against this backdrop, the Fund delivered a negative performance over the month and underperformed its reference indicator. The main drag came from the equity allocation, while alternative strategies provided some offset.
  • The equity bucket detracted from performance, with both Carmignac Investissement and Carmignac Portfolio Grandchildren contributing negatively over the period.
  • Alternative strategies proved more resilient and posted a modest positive contribution. Carmignac Portfolio Absolute Return Europe and Carmignac Portfolio Merger Arbitrage both added to performance,
  • Within fixed income, contributions were mixed. Our exposure to Carmignac Portfolio Credit weighed on performance, while Carmignac Portfolio Global Bond contributed positively and partly offset these losses.

Outlook strategy

  • Higher yields are creating renewed opportunities in fixed income, although selectivity remains essential. We believe the widening in sovereign spreads, particularly in France, is more reflective of a repricing towards fundamentals than of a broader European crisis risk.
  • We remain constructive on equities despite relatively cautious investor positioning. We maintain our convictions in AI, particularly semiconductors, while continuing to diversify into consumer, financial and healthcare names.
  • We increased the portfolio’s modified duration, primarily in the 3–5-year segment in Europe, where current yield levels already price in a significant degree of inflation risk. We also reduced our short positions in US rates through options.
  • We maintain positions designed to benefit from wider French spreads and have increased our exposure to Italian real rates at intermediate maturities, which have become more attractive after being affected by contagion from tensions in France.
  • Inflation remains a key risk. We therefore maintain exposure to inflation-linked bonds in Europe and to US inflation breakevens.
  • We remain structurally underweight the US dollar, despite the tactical support it is receiving from tensions in Europe. The yen and emerging-market currencies, particularly the Brazilian real, remain important sources of diversification.
