Fund Overview | |
Manager Comments | Longlead noted the Fund has started the year strongly, with year-to-date performance of +5.66% compared to +1.11% for AFM's Asia Pacific Index. While the absolute dollar profits in the month were generated from the long book in line with the rising market, positive alpha was generated from both long and short positions. Longlead added that with company reporting season playing out through the month it was notable to witness a higher than usual proportion of earnings beats across countries with a general theme of rapid earnings recovery evident against muted expectations. The Communication Services, Materials and Information Technology sectors contributed to Fund performance, while Consumer Discretionary positions detracted. By country, gains were posted in Taiwan, China and Australia, while a loss was generated in holdings in the United States. |
