"Emerging and frontier markets are surging, propelled by monetary easing from the Fed and a massive wave of global AI capex feeding into highly valued and discounted tech leaders across Asia."
In Q3 2025, emerging and frontier markets posted strong gains of 11% and 15% in USD, led by a powerful 42% YTD rebound in Chinese equities. This market 'melt-up' is fundamentally supported by the Fed's return to interest rate cuts, which relaxes monetary conditions globally and triggers domestic rate-cutting cycles (notably in Brazil). While China's recent surge was largely liquidity-driven, core technology leaders like Alibaba still trade at cheap multiples (12.8x forward EBITDA) despite strong cloud growth and advanced AI initiatives. Outside China, massive AI-related capex from US hyperscalers continues to funnel revenues to critical hardware enablers in Taiwan and South Korea, where key holdings TSMC and SK Hynix enjoy substantial pricing power and secular tailwinds. In frontier markets, Vietnam is well-positioned for potential inclusion in the FTSE Emerging Markets Index. Conversely, India is taking a temporary breather amid geopolitical and tariff-related headwinds, though structural growth remains intact.
