Quick Take

"The fund capitalizes on the artificial intelligence revolution through exposure to semiconductor designers and data center infrastructure providers."

Executive Summary

The Munro Global Growth Fund returned 10.4% for the December quarter, driven primarily by artificial intelligence-related holdings. The fund's core thesis centers on benefiting from the ongoing AI revolution, with key contributors including Broadcom, which has emerged as the designer of choice for custom semiconductor chips used in AI applications, and GE Vernova, an electric power systems company supporting data center infrastructure. The fund maintains significant exposure to technology companies serving hyperscale data centers, including Meta, Alphabet, Amazon, and Microsoft. Detractors included Constellation Energy, which declined after regulatory setbacks in nuclear power deals, and Uber, which faced pressure from autonomous driving regulation concerns. The manager expects the bull market that began in 2023 to continue into its third year, supported by favorable conditions including stabilized interest rates, easing inflationary pressures, and potential central bank support. The fund ended the quarter with 49% currency hedging back to the Australian dollar and maintains a concentrated portfolio of 46 total positions focused on growth themes.
