"Outperforming its benchmark through tactical macro-thematic tilts in AI and semiconductor themes."
Executive Summary
During Q3 2025, the BlackRock Advantage Global Fund posted positive returns of 9.00% (Institutional), outperforming the MSCI All Country World Index's return of 7.74%. Performance was driven by macro-thematic insights that positioned the fund around AI and 'risk-on' market themes, along with fundamental insights focused on R&D spending and sales growth. These gains offset detractions from momentum style reversals and speculative deleveraging in July. Sector- and country-level tilts remained largely neutral, with slight overweights in IT, communication services, the US, and Japan, and slight underweights in materials, healthcare, and France.
