Performance commentary
- Against this backdrop, the fund delivered a negative performance for the month.
- Novo Nordisk was the most significant detractor. The stock faced multiple negative developments, including potential competition for its weight loss and diabetes drugs, pricing concerns in the US, and disappointing results from its weight loss pill currently in development.
- Samsung Electronics also negatively impacted performance, as it was outperformed by its rival SK Hynix in the artificial intelligence memory chip sector.
- Conversely, our investments in Taiwan (TSMC) and China (VIP Shop) contributed positively to the Fund's performance.
- Finally, our management of the US dollar slightly supported the fund's performance over the period.
Outlook strategy
- We remain constructive on equities. In a scenario of gradual economic slowdown and global monetary easing, risky assets should continue to perform well as long as there is no recession.
- The master fund portfolio adopts a balanced approach, combining high-growth equities at relatively high valuations on the one hand, and lower-growth equities with high visibility and attractive valuations on the other.
- Among the main holdings of the master fund are Synopsys and Cadence, whose software is used by chip manufacturers such as Nvidia to design and test processors. Their growth also benefits from the growing desire of companies such as Microsoft and Google to develop their own chips, particularly for their artificial intelligence systems.
- Carmignac Investissement is gradually increasing its exposure to small- and mid-cap companies, enabling us to further diversify our portfolio.
- Carmignac Investissement Latitude continues to actively manage the Fund's equities exposure, which currently stands at around 30 to 40%.
- In terms of currencies, we continue to actively manage the euro/dollar exchange rate.

I always strive to fully exploit the Fund’s dynamic nature. The return of inflation is the return of the economic cycle where truly active management will stand out even more as the recent years have shown.

Market environment
Major indices reached all-time highs during the month, driven by monetary easing from central banks.
Chinese equities surged towards the end of the period as Beijing's stimulus measures boosted optimism about the recovery of the world's second-largest economy. These measures aim to counter monetary contraction, address the collapse in the property market, and revive the struggling stock market.
The Federal Reserve initiated its easing cycle with an aggressive 50 basis point cut in its key rate, while the European Central Bank continued to reduce its key rates by 25 basis points.
Economic indicators in the United States remain robust, with rising retail sales and industrial production, a mixed but solid employment market, and falling inflation. In contrast, economic activity in the eurozone has been more lackluster.
