Market environment

  • Global equity markets experienced an eventful October, against the backdrop of a busy earnings season. While the global equity index ended the month broadly flat, underlying moves were much more pronounced: high-beta segments and stocks that had benefited most from the momentum surrounding artificial intelligence corrected sharply, leading to greater dispersion across sectors and styles.
  • The earnings season remained fundamentally strong, with more than 80% of S&P 500 companies reporting so far beating EPS expectations and blended earnings growth reaching around +30% year-on-year. Against this solid backdrop, the intensification of investment by US technology giants in AI infrastructure stood out. Despite broadly strong operating results, accelerating capital expenditure and the resulting pressure on cash generation prompted greater caution. Investors are becoming increasingly demanding regarding the returns on these investments, triggering a correction in US mega-cap technology stocks that quickly spread across the broader value chain, particularly in South Korea and Taiwan.
  • This move was accompanied by a pronounced style rotation. Momentum and high-beta stocks lost ground in favour of higher-quality companies offering greater earnings visibility, with renewed interest notably in healthcare and selected financial stocks.
  • Finally, the macroeconomic backdrop remained unsupportive of further multiple expansion. Resilient US growth, persistent inflation and higher oil prices kept real yields and the term premium elevated. Against this backdrop, the Federal Reserve left policy rates unchanged, judging that the balance between economic activity and inflation did not yet warrant further monetary easing.

Performance commentary

  • In October, the Fund posted a positive absolute and relative performance.
  • Performance reflected a broadening of market leadership, with gains extending beyond Technology and AI-related names. Against this backdrop, the Fund’s diversification proved particularly beneficial, with Healthcare, Financials, Industrials and Consumer Staples all contributing positively.
  • Healthcare was the largest contributor, with several of our holdings being rewarded after a period of more muted performance. Genmab was a standout performer following highly positive Phase III data for Rina-S in ovarian cancer, significantly de-risking a key pipeline asset, while encouraging developments across its broader oncology portfolio further strengthened confidence in the company’s long-term growth prospects.
  • Financials and Industrials also contributed positively. Mastercard benefited from strong results and resilient payment volumes, while S&P Global, RELX and Equifax rebounded as robust results eased AI disruption concerns, highlighting how proprietary data and embedded workflows can position these businesses to benefit from AI adoption.
  • Consumer Staples also participated meaningfully, with Colgate-Palmolive, Procter & Gamble, Church & Dwight and L’Oréal delivering positive returns.
  • Conversely, Technology detracted, driven by Nvidia, ASML and Broadcom. However, the Fund’s underweight and diversified positioning helped offset this weakness, highlighting the benefits of maintaining exposure to multiple sources of quality rather than relying on a narrow group of market leaders.

Outlook strategy

  • During this month, we made several portfolio adjustments.
  • We exited Prysmian following strong AI-driven performance and reallocated capital to Daiichi Sankyo, a Japanese healthcare company.
  • We also took advantage of the strong performance of Equifax and Relx to reduce our position and take some profits.
  • More broadly, the month illustrated how previously overlooked quality companies can be rewarded as fundamentals regain importance, and market leadership broadens.
  • We remain constructive but disciplined. With parts of defensive growth still attractively valued, we are selectively adding exposure to companies combining strong fundamentals, pricing power and visible long-term growth.
  • The portfolio remains well balanced across AI beneficiaries, healthcare leaders, and established quality compounders, providing multiple sources of structural growth rather than relying on a single market theme.
  • Looking ahead, we remain confident in the portfolio’s underlying fundamentals, supported by resilient earnings growth, strong cash generation, high returns on capital and sound balance sheets.
