"During Q4 2025, the Janus Henderson Global Sustainable Equity Fund returned -1.54%, underperforming its benchmark index due to negative stock selection. Despite near-term headwinds, the managers are constructive on structural opportunities in AI infrastructure and clean technology."
The Janus Henderson Global Sustainable Equity Fund returned -1.54% during the fourth quarter of 2025, underperforming the benchmark MSCI World Index, which gained 3.29%, and its Peer Group's return of 2.65%. The primary driver of this underperformance was negative stock selection. Several top performers from earlier in the year, including Spotify, Nintendo, and Uber, experienced a pullback in share price. Additionally, the fund's lack of exposure to mega-cap giants Alphabet and Apple, along with underperformance in defensive insurance holdings like Arthur J. Gallagher, Progressive, and Marsh McLennan, dragged on relative returns. Conversely, positive performance was driven by the AI infrastructure value chain, with holdings like TSMC, Keysight, Nextpower, KLA, Micron, and Infineon posting strong gains. TSMC, in particular, raised its full-year guidance due to explosive AI demand. Portfolio trading activity during the quarter included initiating new positions in Micron Technology, Contemporary Amperex Technology (CATL), and Jacobs Solutions, while exiting T-Mobile, Walker & Dunlop, Shimano, and McCormick. The managers maintain a constructive forward outlook for 2026, noting that clean technology economics have reached a tipping point with renewables and electric vehicles achieving cost parity, creating robust secular opportunities.
