Q4 2024 Fund Commentary

Market commentary

Global equity market returns diverged over the quarter. In the U.S., investors weighed the benefits of possible tax cuts and higher domestic energy production against the potential impact of immigration reforms on the labour supply. The U.S. dollar strengthened and Treasury yields rose, alongside expectations of persistently elevated inflation.

Performance

The Fund’s relative exposure to Celestica Inc. had a positive impact on performance. Relative exposure to Teck Resources Ltd. had a negative impact on performance.

Celestica Inc. has become a leading supplier of artificial intelligence servers to hyperscale customers. The company is also gaining market share in networking switches, supported by its collaboration with Broadcom Inc.

Teck Resources Ltd. underperformed alongside other copper producers because of weak demand from China. The company’s flagship asset, major copper mine Quebrada Blanca Phase 2, increased production. In the long term, the sub-advisor expects the company to benefit from copper’s importance to the energy transition.

At the sector level, stock selection in industrials, information technology and financials had a positive impact on performance. Stock selection in consumer discretionary and health care had a negative impact.

Regionally, stock selection in Canada and France was positive for performance, while stock selection in the U.S. and U.K. was negative.

The sub-advisor added Goldman Sachs Group Inc. to the Fund. The investment bank is returning to its traditional mergers-and-acquisitions advisory, capital raising, trading and wealth management services. The sub-advisor increased exposure to Wells Fargo & Co.

The sub-advisor sold CVS Health Corp. because of several missed earnings targets and increasing regulatory challenges. Potential legislation could force the company to separate its pharmacy benefit manager and retail pharmacy, which could reduce profitability. The sub-advisor decreased exposure to D.R. Horton Inc.

Outlook

Most major central banks are lowering interest rates, with Japan being a notable exception. Despite this trend, the sub-advisor believes terminal interest rates are likely to remain higher than they have been over the past decade.

The Fund has overweight exposure to U.S. banks, which could benefit from deregulation, strong consumer and corporate spending, and a steepening yield curve, in the sub-advisor’s view. The sub-advisor also continues to find opportunities in the information technology sector.
