Quick Take

"Multi-asset funds capitalized on monetary policy pivot from inflation control to growth support, delivering positive returns through strategic infrastructure positioning and diversified global exposure."

Executive Summary

T. Bailey's multi-asset funds delivered positive performance in Q3 2024 as monetary policy shifted from inflation control to growth support, creating broader market leadership opportunities. The manager strategically positioned in undervalued infrastructure through VT Gravis UK Infrastructure Fund and existing holdings like Impact Healthcare REIT and Urban Logistics, which benefited from softening interest rates. Strong performance came from Chrysalis Investments following a bid announcement and gold exposure providing diversification benefits. The artificial intelligence theme faced headwinds as valuations stretched, prompting a strategic shift toward AI beneficiaries outside large-cap technology. With the Federal Reserve beginning its easing cycle, the manager expects continued rate cuts to support both stock and bond returns. The funds maintain diversified exposure across geographies and asset classes, positioned to benefit from broadening earnings growth. Key risks include ongoing geopolitical conflicts and election uncertainty, while alternative investments like absolute return funds provide downside protection. The manager focuses on high-quality companies trading at attractive mid-teens price-to-earnings multiples with strong return on invested capital.
