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.

Market environment

  • May was marked by renewed inflationary pressure, a more hawkish central-bank backdrop and signs of geopolitical de-escalation. In particular, a credible attempt to reach an agreement between the US and Iran emerged towards month-end, helping oil prices decline sharply and fall below USD 100.
  • Equity-market sentiment remained constructive. Investors continued to look through inflation and monetary-policy concerns, supported by hopes of geopolitical easing and strong earnings momentum in AI-related infrastructure.
  • Global equities reached new highs in May, initially led by a narrow group of US technology, semiconductor and AI beneficiaries. Later in the month, expectations of a US-Iran agreement triggered a rebound in previous laggards and “war losers”, allowing European equities to partially catch up.
  • Emerging markets outperformed developed markets, led by Korea and Taiwan, which benefited from their exposure to the AI supply chain and continued hyperscaler capex demand.
  • US market leadership remained highly concentrated, with technology and especially semiconductors standing out, while broader market participation stayed weak.

Performance commentary

  • In this environment, our strategy delivered a positive return during the month, albeit slightly underperforming its reference indicator.
  • Our technology holdings continued to benefit from the enthusiasm surrounding artificial intelligence and the ongoing increase in hyperscaler capital expenditure, which shows no sign of slowing at this stage.
  • Companies positioned at the heart of this value chain, particularly those occupying critical technological bottlenecks, continued to outperform. SK Hynix, SK Square and TSMC were among the Fund’s leading contributors during the month.
  • After initially being perceived as some of the main losers from the rise of generative AI, a number of software companies experienced a strong rebound in their share prices. Investors have increasingly turned their attention to the second-order beneficiaries of AI adoption, particularly software platforms that could leverage the productivity gains enabled by the technology. While the commercial benefits of AI remain difficult to quantify at this stage, the market has adopted a more constructive view on companies such as Atlassian and ServiceNow. These positions contributed positively to the Fund’s performance during the month, although their share prices remain well below their 2025 highs.
  • Finally, our investments in the financial sector (Wise, Tradeweb) and healthcare sector (Cencora, McKesson) detracted from performance.
  • Finally, despite the continued tensions in the Middle East and the lack of any meaningful improvement in the global geopolitical backdrop, our equity market hedges weighed on the Fund’s performance during the month.

Outlook strategy

  • In a market environment that remains highly momentum-driven, non-AI stocks continue to struggle as flows concentrate in the AI trade, a trend that could be further supported by upcoming mega IPOs.
  • Against this backdrop, we continue to strengthen the portfolio’s resilience, with the aim of better navigating a potential rise in volatility.
  • We have been taking some profits on high-beta semiconductor names, such as SK Hynix and selected Taiwanese mid-caps, while reinforcing our exposure to higher-quality leaders such as Nvidia and Broadcom.
  • In parallel, we are adding to defensive stocks like the US drug distributors Cencora and McKesson or healthcare companies like Astra Zeneca.
  • Financials remain the fund’s second-largest sector allocation after technology. Our exposure is diversified across financial services, including exchanges and payments, emerging-market banks, and selected turnaround stories.
  • Within financials, Tradeweb remains one of our key convictions. The investment case is straightforward: fixed income markets remain significantly under-electronified. Voice trading continues to lose ground to electronic platforms, particularly in rates and swaps, creating a structural growth opportunity for Tradeweb.
  • We continue to actively manage the equity exposure and maintain USD hedges.
