Market environment

  • In July, emerging markets declined by 3.1% in US-dollar terms, with significant regional dispersion: emerging Asia fell by 4.5%, while Latin America gained 4.8%. The correction across North Asia’s technology-heavy markets contrasted with the resilience of Hong Kong, India and Brazil.
  • South Korea and Taiwan were the main areas of weakness, amid significant profit-taking in artificial intelligence and semiconductor stocks following their strong performance since the beginning of the year. In South Korea, the overcrowded positioning on Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, combined the deleveraging of single-stock leveraged ETFs, amplified the sell-off and led to several trading halts. Advances by Chinese AI players and the successful IPO of memory-chip manufacturer CXMT also revived concerns about increasing competition and future pricing pressure across the sector.
  • Chinese markets delivered mixed performances: the Hang Seng gained 13.1%, supported notably by major internet / technology platforms, while the domestic market declined by 7.9%, as investors reassessed valuations and the prospective returns on hyperscaler spending, against a backdrop of persistently weak domestic economic activity.
  • India proved more resilient, with the BSE Sensex rising by 2.1%, supported by encouraging quarterly results and renewed foreign investor flows.
  • In Latin America, Brazil gained 3.5%, benefiting from its significant exposure to the energy and commodity sectors.

Performance commentary

  • Against this backdrop, the Fund delivered a negative performance over the month. The decline primarily reflected the sharp correction in South Korean and Taiwanese technology stocks, following their strong performance since the beginning of the year.
  • In South Korea, SK Square and SK Hynix were the largest detractors, followed by Samsung Electronics. In Taiwan, Grand Process Technology and Asia Vital Components also weighed on performance. These companies, which are exposed to the memory and semiconductor value chain, experienced significant profit-taking during the month.
  • In China, performance was also impacted by the weakness of Shenzhen Han's CNC Technology. The company, a leading manufacturer of printed circuit board (PCB) drilling equipment, was caught in the broader sell-off across AI-related technology names. Nevertheless, our selective allocation and active position sizing within the technology sector contributed positively on a relative basis, as the Fund remained less exposed than its benchmark to a sector that experienced particularly sharp declines.
  • Conversely, our diversification beyond Asian technology provided positive support to performance. Notably, our stock selection in China (Tencent, New Oriental Education, HK Exchange, Horizon Robotics), Latin America (Banorte, MercadoLibre) and Southeast Asia (Sea, Bank Central Asia) generated positive contributions, illustrating the breadth of investment opportunities across the emerging markets universe.

Outlook strategy

  • Despite the heightened volatility in Asian technology stocks, we remain constructive on emerging markets. In our view, the recent correction primarily reflects a valuation reset and the unwinding of crowded positions rather than any deterioration in underlying fundamentals. Emerging market earnings revisions continue to trend upwards, while valuations remain attractive relative to developed markets.
  • We remain convinced that the artificial intelligence investment cycle is still in its early stages. Capital expenditure by leading cloud providers continues to grow at a robust pace, supported by high data centre utilisation rates and long-term supply agreements that provide strong earnings visibility for Asia's leading technology companies. While Chinese competitors continue to make progress, we do not believe they pose a meaningful short-term threat to the technological leadership of Korean and Taiwanese industry leaders.
  • Against this backdrop, we entered this period of volatility with a more balanced portfolio, having disciplinedly reduced our overweight in memory stocks during the second quarter. We took advantage of the correction to selectively reinforce some of our highest-conviction positions, notably SK Square in South Korea, whose valuation discount remains particularly attractive, and BizLink in Taiwan. We also participated in the IPO of one of India's leading hospital operators, strengthening our exposure to a high-quality company benefiting from the country's long-term structural healthcare growth. At the same time, we continue to maintain an underweight position in both the benchmark's largest technology names and the technology sector overall.
  • We are also continuing to diversify the portfolio by gradually increasing our exposure to attractive risk-reward opportunities across China, India and Latin America. The current earnings season increasingly confirms that growth drivers within emerging markets are broadening beyond the traditional AI-related technology leaders.
