Quick Take
"Fund underperformed in Q3 despite strong AI-driven technology performance from NVIDIA, AppLovin, and Taiwan Semiconductor. Added Oracle for AI cloud opportunities and Nintendo for Switch 2 growth."
Executive Summary
The PGIM Jennison Global Opportunities Fund returned 5.3% in Q3 2025, underperforming the MSCI ACWI Index which returned 7.6%. The fund continues to benefit from AI momentum with strong performance from technology holdings including NVIDIA, AppLovin, and Taiwan Semiconductor. Key portfolio changes included initiating positions in Oracle to capitalize on AI workloads and cloud services, and adding Nintendo ahead of Switch 2 launch. The fund also added Alphabet and Robinhood while eliminating positions in Samsara, Fair Isaac, Eli Lilly, and Vertex due to various company-specific issues. Despite policy uncertainties around tariffs, fiscal policy, and geopolitical tensions, the market showed remarkable resilience with the Fed's 25 basis point rate cut providing additional tailwinds. The GenAI boom continues to create significant investment opportunities. Jennison maintains focus on high-quality companies with enduring competitive advantages and remains confident the fund is positioned to generate above-average revenue and earnings growth over the investment horizon.
