Track record
Markets continued to rally in November, lifted by resilient corporate earnings and hopes that the Fed may slow the pace of its interest rate hikes. In this newly “risk-on” environment, the fund suffered from its overexposure to healthcare, which benefited less than other sectors from the market rally. Rovi, the Spanish pharmaceuticals player, featured among leading negative contributors due to the slowdown of Covid vaccines and delays in the approval of two of its most promising treatments by the FDA. We feel the market over-reacted to this news and chose to strengthen our position. In contrast, Alstom rebounded sharply on the back of reassuring reports on cashflow generation and the impacts of inflation. Small and mid-caps, notably within the tech sector – such as Esker, Believe, Cancom, Compugroup or Tinexta, benefited from investors swith to a more “risk-on” positioning.
