"The Bell Global Equities Fund experienced underperformance in September 2025 due to sharp style headwinds against high-quality assets. The managers proactively adjusted the portfolio by adding Sage Group and Waste Management while liquidating cyclically pressured holdings like DSV."
In September 2025, the Bell Global Equities Fund gained 0.1%, underperforming its benchmark, the MSCI World ex-Australia Index, which rose 2.0%. This underperformance was primarily driven by style headwinds for quality-focused strategies and specific overweights in Health Care and Industrials. To capitalize on market shifts, the fund added new positions in Sage Group and Waste Management, liquidated cyclically challenged holdings in DSV and BE Semiconductors, and trimmed profits in strong performers such as Apple, Alphabet, Hoya, and Motorola Solutions. The managers maintain high conviction in their disciplined GARP framework, highlighting historical precedents where quality-driven strategies rebounded strongly following periods of extreme style dislocation.
