Q4 2024 Fund Commentary

Market commentary

Global equity market performance was mixed across regions over the quarter. The U.S. stock market gained, partially driven by market anticipation of business-friendly policies from the new U.S. administration. The consumer discretionary sector led gains, followed by communication services, information technology and financials. Materials stocks were negatively affected by China’s slowing economy.

European stocks declined, as the region faced economic weakness, political uncertainty, ongoing geopolitical tensions and concerns about possible tariffs from the U.S. In Asia, Japanese stocks gained, particularly in the financials sector, with the Bank of Japan maintaining its short-term policy interest rate at 0.25%. Emerging markets equities declined slightly, with significant losses in Indian, Chinese and Brazilian stocks.

The U.S. dollar rose sharply against most major currencies. The Canadian dollar ended the period almost 6% lower versus the U.S. dollar.

Performance

The Fund’s relative exposure to Apollo Global Management Inc., Blackstone Inc., PB Fintech Ltd. and International Consolidated Airlines Group SA had a positive impact on performance. Relative exposure to United Airlines Holdings Inc. and Broadcom Inc. was also positive. India-based online insurer PB Fintech Ltd. experienced strong growth in its core insurance business. Spanish-listed International Consolidated Airlines Group, which operates British Airways, Iberia and Aer Lingus, reported strong third-quarter revenue growth and a large share buyback program.

The Fund’s relative exposure to benchmark heavyweights Tesla Inc., Apple Inc., Amazon.com Inc. and NVIDIA Corp. had a negative impact on performance. Health care stocks Novo Nordisk AS and Eli Lilly and Co. also had a negative impact. Shares of Novo Nordisk AS declined as lower efficacy was linked to its Wegovy weight-loss drug. Eli Lilly and Co.’s stock fell following a period of strong performance.

At the sector level, financials, health care, consumer discretionary, industrials and information technology were positive for performance.

The sub-advisor added Hitachi Ltd., Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd., Herc Holdings Inc., Honeywell International Inc. and PT Bank Central Asia Tbk to the Fund.

Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd., The Home Depot Inc., Bajaj Auto Ltd., Union Pacific Corp. and Constellation Energy Corp. were sold.

Outlook

The sub-advisor is focused on companies with the ability to succeed in different, changing investment environments, with a flexible approach across geographies. In particular, the sub-advisor looks for companies with structural or cyclical growth drivers, resilient market structures, pricing power, strong balance sheets and good capital allocation.
