A rapidly evolving geopolitical landscape and rising defense spending in Europe have significantly increased demand expectations.

This resilience stems from excess liquidity from pandemic-era government spending and unique 30-year mortgage structures. | CVE.TO |

| 2025 Q3 | Oct 9, 2025 | Mawer International Equity Fund | 3.7% | 21.8% | 0700.HK, AJG, APH, ASML, ATR, BDX, BMO.TO, BNS.TO, BWXT, DB1.DE, FNV.TO, GOOGL, LSEG.L, MLM, MMC, MSFT, RELX.L, RY.TO, SHOP.TO, TD.TO, TME, TSM, VRSK, WAT, WKL.AS | AI, Banking, Canada, gold, rates, semiconductors, technology | AI-related stocks have dominated market returns since ChatGPT's launch in November 2022, accounting for a lion's share of S&P 500 returns, earnings growth, and capital spending. Corporate spending on data center infrastructure and semiconductors is projected to be several trillion dollars over the next three years. AI companies are making enormous investment deals with each other, staying largely within the established AI ecosystem. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 13, 2026 | Mawer International Equity Fund | -1.8% | 18.4% | 000660.KS, 0700.HK, AJG, APH, ATR, BA.L, BNS.TO, COR, CSU.TO, DHR, FTT.TO, GOOGL, MFC.TO, MMC, MSFT, PNG.V, RY.TO, TD.TO, TOI.TO, WAT | AI, defense, equities, global, gold, Quality, semiconductors, Valuations | AI remained the dominant market narrative, yet the year's shift from a focus on computing power to concerns about data centre profitability and power supply raised bubble concerns. The combination of industrial-scale spending, still-unproven economics, and higher valuations increases the risk that expectations get ahead of reality. Amphenol benefited from robust demand for AI-related interconnect products, which now account for over a third of its revenue. Gold remained well supported against the backdrop of easier global policy and unresolved geopolitical and trade risks. The firm narrowed their long-standing underweight to gold stocks in a measured way as geopolitical uncertainty, de-dollarization, fiscal indiscipline, central bank gold purchases, and falling interest rates created a more supportive backdrop. They focused on gold-related companies with differentiated, relatively lower-risk business models. Defense contractors such as the UK's BAE, Italy's Leonardo, and France's Thales experienced pullbacks in the fourth quarter on the possibility of a diplomatic breakthrough in the Russia-Ukraine war. However, geopolitical events early in the year helped defense company shares more-than-offset the declines seen in the fourth quarter. Kraken Robotics also benefited from increased government defence spending. High-bandwidth memory leader SK Hynix nearly doubled in the quarter thanks to explosive demand for its products. Other AI-linked semiconductor companies were rewarded for continued fundamental strength, such as TSMC and Kokusai Electric. European equities were supported by semiconductor stocks among other factors. | View | |

Holdings in defense companies such as Rheinmetall, Thales, and BAE Systems had strong returns. | View |
