While investment in data centers has created optimism, concerns persist about financing, supply chain and power constraints. Investors also continue to consider the impact of AI on traditional business models. Demand for AI-integrated processes and robotics has increased as businesses move to factory automation. Companies are poised to benefit from new applications in industries like agriculture. The fund initiated a position in FANUC, expecting revenue and earnings to accelerate as global automation demand grows. Companies in the pharmaceuticals industry have focused on new products in therapeutic areas with unmet needs, including cancer and skin conditions. These select companies with innovative product pipelines are positioned to benefit from an inflection in growth. The acceleration of digitalization is benefiting technology holdings exposed to cloud computing, automation, digital payments and IT services growth. Japan-based companies, in particular, are investing heavily to increase efficiency and profits as they seek to catch up with their international competitors. | View | |

The team expects AI-related investment opportunities to encompass an increasing number of companies that stand to benefit from capital-fuelled AI advancements, while being selective about frothy valuations. Quality stocks suffered their worst relative decline in developed markets in more than two decades in 2025. The team is taking advantage of the market shunning quality stocks, finding opportunities in companies with high return on capital and good long-term defensive characteristics that have been unfairly de-rated. US Growth versus Value shows the widest valuation gap in decades, while Value has performed better in other regional markets, notably Europe and the UK. The team sees opportunities for Value catch-up as AI moves from builders to users across traditional sectors. Semiconductor cycle remains strong with companies like SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics delivering substantial earnings upgrades. However, there are risks that higher prices could lead to demand destruction as customers baulk at paying elevated prices for electronics. | View | |
