Gold is undergoing a longer-term revaluation as a monetary alternative amid elevated sovereign debt levels and shifting geopolitical alliances. Defense spending increases are supporting companies like Chemring Group and Kawasaki Heavy Industries. Japan plans to double defense spending by 2035, while European defense expenditures are rising due to security concerns. The fund added Japanese defense-related companies including Chugoku Marine Paints and Namura Shipbuilding. International equities benefited from investors diversifying from mega-cap U.S. technology companies. Dollar weakness supported returns, with the DXY Index declining about 9% during 2025. Valuations between U.S. and international markets had become stretched in favor of non-U.S. equities. | 4617 JP |
