| 2025 Q4 | Jan 20, 2026 | Harding Loevner Global Equity | 1.9% | 12.7% | 0700.HK, 1299.HK, 2308.TW, 300124.SZ, 300760.SZ, 4519.T, 6758.T, 6861.T, ABBV, ACN, ADBE, ALFA.ST, AME, AMZN, APH, ASML, ATCO-A.ST, ATD.TO, ATKR, AVGO, BKNG, CME, COMP.L, CSGP, D05.SI, DE, DHR, DPLM.L, EFX, ELV, EPI-A.ST, FN, GMAB, GOOGL, HDFCBANK.NS, HEI, HLN.L, HON, JNJ, META, MSFT, NFLX, NOC, NVDA, PGR, ROG.SW, SAP, SGSN.SW, SHEL, SLB, SU.PA, TMO, TSM, TTD, TW, V, VRTX, WMMVY | AI, global, international, semiconductors, technology, value | AI represents a capital-expenditure regime with two distinct camps: hyperscalers investing in computing capacity and physical enablers of the buildout. The US market is more dependent on AI continuing to surprise to the upside due to richer valuations and concentrated exposure. Global semiconductor ecosystem enables AI buildout, spanning chip foundries, memory-chip makers, and equipment manufacturers. International markets are more heavily tilted toward this manufacturing and infrastructure provider segment. International markets trade at roughly half the multiples of US stocks, offering more attractive valuations. Non-US markets start from cheaper valuations and possess more diverse growth opportunities unrelated to AI. | GOOG |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 16, 2026 | Janus Japan Opportunity Fund | 3.6% | 14.5% | 1803.T, 4091.T, 4385.T, 4519.T, 6141.T, 6758.T | AI, Construction, Corporate Governance, E-Commerce, inflation, Japan, Pharmaceuticals | Artificial intelligence remains a global investment theme and Japan is no exception. Investor interest has largely focused on high-volatility stocks, although there has been a broader search for quality AI beneficiaries. This shift has expanded the opportunity set, allowing the fund to add positions in attractively valued, high-quality companies aligned with the theme. Inflation has continued to be a persistent feature in Japan and has prompted changes in both corporate and consumer behavior. Importantly, inflation has fed through to corporate earnings and equity performance. Companies that have successfully passed on higher costs to consumers have benefited from improved operating margins. The continued improvement in corporate governance and shareholder value is a tailwind for Japanese equities. A revision of the Corporate Governance Code is expected to address corporates' hoarding of cash, which should enhance capital efficiency and ultimately lead to higher dividends and share buybacks. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | Baillie Gifford -International All Cap | - | 19.0% | 005930.KS, 3317.T, 4519.T, 6869.T, 8035.T, ASML, AUTO.L, DSV.CO, EXO.MI, GAW.L, MC.PA, MELI, NMET.DE, RMV.L, ROG.SW, TSM | AI, growth, healthcare, international, Luxury, Quality, semiconductors, technology | AI continues to drive robust demand for advanced chips, particularly benefiting TSMC and related semiconductor equipment companies. However, AI tools and functionality create uncertainty for online platforms like Rightmove and Autotrader, as markets take a cautious stance on potential position erosion or increased investment needs. The impact appears mixed across sectors with clear benefits for chip manufacturers but concerns for consumer-facing platforms. Semiconductor companies were among the most significant contributors to performance, driven by robust demand for advanced chips used in artificial intelligence. TSMC benefited from AI chip demand, Samsung was supported by improving memory market conditions particularly high bandwidth memory, and related equipment companies like ASML, Tokyo Electron and Chroma also performed well during the quarter. The portfolio maintains a structural bias towards high-quality growth businesses, though this created headwinds during the quarter as quality stocks underperformed the broader international market by a margin rarely seen in recent years. The manager emphasizes focus on exceptional businesses with durable competitive advantages, strong balance sheets, and compelling long-term growth opportunities. LVMH contributed positively to performance in the quarter, supported by improving trends in Asia and the resilience of its leading brands after a period of weaker demand for luxury goods. The recovery suggests stabilization in the luxury sector following previous weakness. | View |
