Market environment

  • Hopes that the ceasefire between the United States and Iran would be extended continued to support market sentiment throughout May. This improvement in risk appetite was also reflected in commodity markets, with crude oil prices falling back below the USD 100 per barrel threshold.
  • On the macroeconomic front, US inflation accelerated at its fastest pace in three years, with the April PCE price index rising to 3.8% year-on-year, while core PCE inflation reached 3.3%.
  • At the same time, US PMI data remained supportive, particularly within the manufacturing sector, where the index surprised to the upside at 55.3. The strength was largely driven by inventory rebuilding as companies sought to mitigate potential disruptions to supply chains.
  • In contrast, leading indicators pointed to a slowdown in the euro area amid mounting inflationary pressures. The composite PMI index fell to 47.7, significantly below expectations and its lowest level in almost two and a half years. Meanwhile, preliminary inflation readings for May suggested a moderate acceleration in price pressures across France, Spain and Italy.
  • Rate dynamics diverged across the Atlantic. In the United States, the Treasury curve underwent a bear flattening, with the 2-year yield rising by 14bps compared with a 6bps increase in the 10-year yield. In contrast, euro area government bond yields moved lower, with both German 2-year and 10-year yields declining by 10bps. Risk appetite remained robust, driving a 33bps tightening in high-yield credit spreads, which fell below the levels prevailing prior to the outbreak of the Third Gulf War.

Performance commentary

  • In this environment, the Fund delivered a positive performance over the month, broadly in line with its reference indicator.
  • Credit exposure was the main contributor to performance during the month, benefiting from the significant tightening in credit spreads. The Fund also benefited from its exposure to collateralized loan obligations (CLOs).
  • Rate strategies also contributed positively to performance, notably our long positions on the short end of the eurozone curve, particularly German government bonds, which benefited from the strong rally in rates towards month-end amid easing geopolitical tensions.
  • Conversely, our inflation and credit hedging strategies slightly detracted from performance, as oil prices declined on hopes of an extension of the ceasefire, while credit spreads tightened markedly over the month.

Outlook strategy

  • Against a backdrop of elevated inflation and volatile rate markets, we increased the portfolio’s duration from 2.3 to 2.5 over the month. The sharp sell-off in European government bonds during the first half of May provided an opportunity to strengthen our exposure to euro area rates at more attractive yield levels, notably through German 10-year government bonds, while maintaining our constructive stance on the front end of the curve.
  • We maintain a significant allocation to credit, primarily invested in short-dated, high-quality corporate bonds, which continue to offer an attractive source of carry and a reduced beta to market volatility.
  • On rates, the portfolio remains long the front end of the euro curve, while maintaining short positions on US rates amid resilient growth and persistent inflation, as well as on French government bonds given ongoing political and fiscal uncertainties.
  • The portfolio maintains exposure to inflation through 5-year breakeven strategies in both the euro area and the United States, reflecting our conviction that inflation risks remain skewed to the upside over the medium term.
  • Finally, we maintain an allocation in money market instruments, providing liquidity that is gradually being redeployed into longer-term bonds offering more attractive yields. The portfolio’s yield-to-maturity remains attractive at around 3.9%, reinforcing its carry profile.
