Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What drove fund performance during the past 12 months? Emerging markets equities delivered robust returns over the review period. Asia led the gains, with markets in Southeast Asia particularly strong on expectations that they would benefit from a lower U.S. interest rate environment. This optimism also helped Chinese equities and offset broader woes about the country’s economic outlook. Stocks surged further in September after the Chinese government announced a sweeping stimulus package to jump-start its ailing economy. Versus the MSCI Emerging Markets Index Net, our holdings in Taiwan benefited relative performance the most as it was one of the strongest-performing regional markets, largely due to selected technology stocks. Here, shares of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company rallied sharply on optimism around artificial intelligence. Above-consensus quarterly results also boosted returns amid improved demand for its smartphones and high-performance computing products. Conversely, stock selection in consumer discretionary weighed on relative returns considerably, notably our investments in China. In particular, shares of restaurant operator Yum China suffered on the back of soft demand as consumers remained sensitive to dining out. Security picks and an overweight allocation to consumer staples also hindered relative returns. The fund seeks long-term growth of capital through investments primarily in the common stocks of companies located, or with primary operations, in emerging markets. The portfolio’s largest overweight positions are in consumer stales, consumer discretionary, and industrials and business services, relative to the benchmark. In contrast, materials and energy are areas where we are relatively underweight. | | |
