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

  • Over the month of October, the fund had a positive absolute return but lagged its reference indicator.
  • Our overweight to Consumer sectors was the largest detractor over the month.
  • Although stock selection in consumer discretionary and staples had positive contribution through names like Amazon, Unilever and Nestle, Michelin, Adidas and Home depot were among our largest detractors.
  • In Healthcare we saw a pick up in a few stocks like Eli Lilly and Essilor which supported performance.

Outlook strategy

  • In October, we initiated a few positions in the portfolio. We started investing in ASML, BBVA, EssilorLuxottica and Netflix on the back of good quarterly results and top quartile CHX scores.
  • We also continued to add to Colgate Palmolive, on the back of weakness and lower cyclicality.
  • In order to add to these names we continued to reduce our position in Alphabet and SAP as well as sold out of Beiersdorf
  • We remain cautious in positioning our portfolio and continue to focus on higher quality companies.

The social theme is one of the most disregarded areas within ESG. Yet we believe that companies providing positive experiences to both their customers and employees are better positioned to achieve superior returns over the long run.
