"The Magellan Global Fund posted flat returns (0.0%) for the quarter, lagging speculative market moves, but retains a constructive outlook backed by rate cuts and strong defensive holdings."
In the quarter ending 30 September 2025, the Magellan Global Fund underperformed its benchmark due to heavy speculative investor rotation into perceived AI beneficiaries at the expense of defensive sectors. Top contributors included Alphabet, TSMC, and ASML, which benefited from positive regulatory outcomes and semiconductor demand. Detractors included Chipotle, Intuit, and SAP, though the manager views these pullbacks as temporary and cyclical. The fund remains constructive on broader equities, supported by global interest rate cuts and high fiscal spending. It maintains risk controls at 20% below market levels, anchored by high-quality defensive businesses like CME Group.
