Market environment

April was a difficult month for equities and bonds due to higher-than-anticipated US inflation and persistently solid growth. This led the markets to lower their expectations of imminent rate cuts at the Federal Reserve, pushing up bond yields and pressurising share prices. The US 10-year yield reached its highest level (4.70%) since the end of 2023 as the market adjusted to the “higher for longer” scenario for interest rates. Global equities were down but credit markets performed relatively well. Investment grade spreads tightened further in both the United States and Europe. The month also brought announcements of Q1 results. Although most companies beat forecasts, the markets were more willing than usual to punish those who fell short. The wider spread between the interest rates of Japan and other developed countries exerted downside pressure on the yen and raised concerns about the effect of imported inflation on Japanese domestic demand. Conversely, higher commodity exposure and investors’ renewed interest in cheap Chinese equities meant emerging markets delivered positive returns over the month.

Performance commentary

The Fund posted a negative performance in April. Equity markets’ misfortunes dealt a blow to our selected equity funds, namely Carmignac Portfolio Investissement and Carmignac Portfolio Grandchildren. On the fixed income side, the Carmignac Portfolio Credit fund was up while the Carmignac Portfolio Global Bond fund was down. Our alternative investment funds could not raise the Fund’s overall performance over the period.

Outlook strategy

We remain convinced that US economic growth will be strong and more sustained than in other countries, even if such resilience is starting to become more commonplace, as reflected in European data. This will probably lead to monetary policy differences in the developed world, in which the Fed may keep its interest rates higher for longer. This development, and the strength of the US economy, explains the Fund’s long stance on the dollar. Equity markets’ new lease of life also prompted us to readjust the Fund’s positioning. We re-exposed it to risky assets, increasing our equity exposure and reducing our credit hedging. We doubt whether financial markets’ path will be as straight and narrow as it has been over the last four to six months. This is particularly important given that current valuations leave little room for disappointment, as the S&P 500 index’s P/E ratio of more than 20x illustrates. We are therefore adjusting our portfolio gradually, in preparation for more volatile conditions. After benefitting greatly from the AI and obesity themes, we have taken profits and reallocated the proceeds to better quality, more defensive stocks. Modified duration remains low, but we are still long on the short end and short on the long end of the curve.
