Market environment

Emerging markets gained ground in April (+1.73% in EUR), unlike developed markets. The main push came from China, where the Hang Seng was up 8.54% and the CSI 300 mainland index 3.20%. China had published some encouraging economic data including the Caixin manufacturing index, which stood in expansionary territory at 51.4. The global economy’s resilience helped China to also post above-forecast Q1 GDP growth (+5.3% vs 5%). As far as geopolitical tensions go, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken’s recent visit illustrates an improvement in communications between the two countries. Elsewhere in Asia, India’s markets were up (BSE SENSEX 30 +2.10% in EUR) and South Korea’s were down (Kospi -3.54% in EUR). In Latin America, Mexican (-2.57% for the Mexico IPC) and Brazilian (-4.12% for the Bovespa) markets also fell in April.

Performance commentary

The Fund posted a slightly negative performance in April. Our equity component greatly benefitted from Chinese markets’ rally. Shares in DiDi rose after the ride-hailing company announced that its buybacks would accelerate in Q2 2024. Our selection of Chinese consumer discretionary stocks such as MINISO, JD.com and Haier Smart Home also helped shore up the Fund. We were somewhat disappointed with our top Latin American holdings, which include Eletrobras and Grupo Banorte. At a bond level, we suffered from our exposure to Mexican and Japanese local debt, as well as Ukraine’s external debt. However, we benefitted from holding PEMEX corporate bonds and Ecuadorian external sovereign debt. Our management of emerging market currencies had a neutral impact on performance over April as a whole. Exposure to the Chilean peso helped, but our positioning on the Chinese yuan worked against us.

Outlook strategy

We remain optimistic for emerging market assets in 2024. The vast emerging world presents numerous opportunities across all regions and asset classes. The latest macroeconomic indicators suggest that manufacturing activity has bottomed out in the United States, the Eurozone and China. This is a big support factor for commodity-producing countries, especially in Latin America. We also take a positive view of Asian economies, particularly South Korea and Taiwan, which should benefit from the new AI cycle. On the fixed income side, at a local debt level we remain focused on countries like Mexico, where the rate-cutting cycle has started and is likely to continue. We are also long on Brazil where real interest rates are still very high. We are long on emerging market debt denominated in hard currencies, but have been taking profits on our best performing positions, such as those in Ecuador and Romania, since the beginning of the year. We are keeping modified duration close to 240 basis points and continuing to protect the portfolio with index hedges. The global economic recovery continues to support commodities such as copper and oil, which should benefit emerging market debt and the currencies of emerging commodity-producing countries. We therefore have positive expectations for the Brazilian real, Chilean peso and Kazakhstani tenge, as well as certain Asian currencies such as the won, as AI should lift the South Korean economy. We are leaving equity exposure at around 25%, with significant exposure to Asian markets and, in particular, Korean and Taiwanese technology stocks as the artificial intelligence theme is leading to sustained growth in demand for semiconductors and electronic components. During the month we closed our position in Beike, a Chinese company that specialises in real estate deals and related services. We also took profits on MINISO (China) following its rally, and increased our exposure to Vipshop.
