Q4 2024 Fund Commentary

Market commentary

During the quarter, the Bank of Canada (BoC) cut interest rates twice, lowering its policy rate to 3.25%. This was meant to support economic growth amid high borrowing costs and a weaker labour market. The Canadian equity market rose, led by the energy, financials and materials sectors. Information technology, health care and consumer staples declined modestly as consumer spending shifted towards more discretionary spending.

The resilient U.S. economy outpaced other major developed economies, and mega-capitalization technology stocks helped U.S. equities outperform global markets. The “Magnificent Seven” group of stocks rose by 48%, while the other 493 stocks in the S&P 500 Index rose by just 10%.

Performance

The Fund’s relative exposure to Brookfield Asset Management Inc., Aon PLC and Cadence Design Systems Inc. had a positive impact on performance. Relative exposure to Alcon Inc. and Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., and lack of exposure to Tesla Inc. and NVIDIA Corp., had a negative impact.

At the sector level, stock selection in communication services, industrials and consumer staples had a positive impact on performance. Stock selection in information technology and consumer discretionary was negative for performance.

Regionally, stock selection in the U.S. had a negative impact on performance.

Outlook

The sub-advisor has a positive outlook on Canadian equities. The sub-advisor expects continued strong performance from key growth sectors, including information technology, industrials and consumer discretionary, and select financial services companies.

The Fund maintains holdings across the market-capitalization spectrum.
