Performance commentary
- Against this backdrop, the fund delivered a positive performance in line with its reference indicator.
- Our strategy benefited greatly from its allocation to the technology sector, particularly Taiwanese companies such as TSMC, Wiwynn and Elite Material.
- Our portfolio of Chinese consumer discretionary stocks also made a positive contribution to performance, such as New Oriental Education, Yadea and H world.
- Finally, we also benefited from our holdings in industrial stocks Sinotrans Ltd, which is involved in logistics activities, and EHang, which offers mobility solutions.
Outlook strategy
- Although we remain constructive on the Chinese markets in the long term, we are maintaining a cautious stance in the short term, as we await further stimulus announcements from the Chinese government in the wake of Donald Trump's election as President of the United States.
- Indeed, Donald Trump's protectionist policies, with tariffs on imports, mainly from China, and the ‘Two Sessions’ in March, are keeping the wind of uncertainty blowing.
- We are closely monitoring each of our Chinese positions and their valuation, with the aim of remaining disciplined in calibrating our positions. We have taken profits on some of our Chinese positions, which have rebounded strongly in recent days, and for which the valuation argument has become less attractive.
- Over the month, we added two stocks to our portfolio: Gudeng Precision Industrial, a manufacturer of photographic moulds for the semiconductor industry, and we invested in Mao Geping Cosmetics, a Chinese player in the cosmetics industry.
