"Harding Loevner lagged the benchmark in Q3 due to extreme market concentration in AI momentum stocks, but they remain steadfastly committed to valuation discipline and are heavily overweighting discounted quality healthcare names."
For the third quarter of 2025, the Harding Loevner Global Equity Composite rose 2.62% gross (2.52% net), underperforming the MSCI ACWI Index's gain of 7.74%. Underperformance was primarily driven by extreme market momentum and concentration in US AI-related stocks, which the fund has deliberately avoided chasing due to risk and valuation concerns. Instead, the fund has maintained an overweight position in the deeply discounted Healthcare sector, which is supported by secular aging demographics and recovering operating fundamentals. Portfolio activity included establishing positions in Delta Electronics and Elevance Health, and fully liquidating positions in Alcon, Applied Materials, Bank Central Asia, and Symrise.
