"Guinness Global Innovators posted a strong 21.9% return in 2024, driven by secular AI enablers. The managers upgraded the portfolio by cutting structurally weaker holdings and adding high-quality, recurring-revenue compounders to weather potential 2025 volatility."
In 2024, the Guinness Global Innovators Fund achieved a total return of 21.9% (GBP), outperforming its MSCI World benchmark (20.8%). Strong performance was primarily driven by the fund's overweight in Information Technology and holdings in major AI enablers like Nvidia and TSMC. During 2024, the managers optimized the portfolio by executing four buys (Siemens Healthineers, LSEG, Netflix, AMETEK) and four sells (Zoom, Comcast, Nike, PayPal), transitioning capital into high-quality compounders with stable recurring revenues. Despite constructive economic signals, the managers are cautious heading into 2025 due to elevated US stock valuations and prospective inflationary risks from Trump's proposed tariffs.
