Market environment

  • In January, financial markets operated in a volatile environment shaped by ongoing geopolitical tensions. Despite this backdrop, risk appetite strengthened over the month, allowing global equities to advance, with emerging markets delivering a marked outperformance.
  • The economic backdrop remained broadly supportive, as activity indicators came in above expectations and inflation continued to decelerate, reinforcing a “Goldilocks” scenario. However, the re-emergence of geopolitical tensions, particularly surrounding Greenland and Iran, reignited market volatility, most notably across commodity markets.
  • In the United States, equity markets were supported by continued momentum in artificial intelligence and solid corporate earnings releases. The Federal Reserve kept policy rates unchanged, while markets now expect rate cuts to be delayed until later in 2026, despite early signs of moderation in consumer spending.
  • In the euro area, markets moved higher, driven by the technology, energy and defence sectors. Economic growth reached 0.3% in the fourth quarter of 2025, the unemployment rate fell to a record low, and inflation dropped back below the 2% threshold.
  • Emerging markets and Asia ex-Japan significantly outperformed, benefiting from a weaker U.S. dollar, strong momentum in semiconductors and artificial intelligence, and higher commodities price, despite ongoing fragilities in India and China.

Performance commentary

  • In this context, the fund delivered a positive performance, outperforming its reference indicator over the period.
  • The portfolio benefited significantly from our exposure to the South Korean market, particularly SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics, whose share prices rose sharply amid strong investment plans by major US players in AI-related infrastructure. In the same vein, Taiwan Semiconductor also made a positive contribution to performance during the period.
  • By contrast, our investments in software were somewhat disappointing, with names such as Salesforce and ServiceNow affected by ongoing uncertainty regarding the impact of AI on their business models.
  • Our European holdings performed well over the period, supported by the share price appreciation of Prysmian, Novo Nordisk and Siemens.
  • Finally, our hedges on the U.S. and Southeast Asian markets slightly weighed on performance during the period.

Outlook strategy

  • The current market regime is being shaped by momentum: it powered last year’s rally and has driven the sharp sell-off seen in recent weeks in certain parts of the market. A significant share of this momentum has been tied to the AI narrative; as this story evolves, reversals are likely to remain fast and violent.
  • Selective re-rating of casualties: We maintain very selective exposure to financial infrastructure, payments and software names that have been indiscriminately sold off, without fundamental justification.
  • Diversifying beyond AI: Non-AI risk exposure has been reinforced through other lagging segments, including selected biotechnology names.
  • More selective AI exposure: We are concentrating on higher-quality areas of AI (e.g. SK Hynix, TSMC), while reducing exposure to fully priced, high-beta AI names.
  • Rising volatility and dispersion: We are adding to long-term convictions that have suffered significant de-ratings, while continuing to reduce exposure to positions that have, so far, been resilient during the early-February volatility episode.
  • In this context, we remain highly active in managing equity exposure and have partially hedged the USD exposure of the master fund.

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.
