Quick Take
"The fund delivered a strong 17.0% annual return while actively managing geopolitical and regulatory headwinds by exiting Apple and maintaining high conviction in dominant US Big Tech and select global multinationals."
Executive Summary
Magellan Global Fund - Open Class Units delivered a 17.0% net return over the past 12 months, keeping pace with the broader market while taking at least 20% less risk. The managers strongly reiterate their structural preference for US equities over European equities due to superior long-term growth fundamentals, maintaining a 59% profit exposure to the US. In response to rising geopolitical risks, the fund exited its position in Apple due to high supply chain and revenue exposure to China, keeping overall revenue exposure to China under 5% through resilient global multinationals like ASML, LVMH, and L'Oréal. Lastly, despite ongoing antitrust and regulatory investigations in the US and Europe, the fund maintains high conviction in its core Big Tech holdings (Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet), expecting them to successfully navigate regulatory pressures because of their vital role in the digital economy.
