Q3 2025 Fund Commentary
Market commentary
The S&P 500 Index rose 8.1%, driven by strong earnings, trade agreements, policy developments and the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s (Fed) interest-rate cut. The rise of artificial intelligence was a catalyst for market growth. Economic indicators, including upward revisions to gross domestic product and a cooling labour market, tempered expectations for additional interest-rate cuts. Despite concerns regarding the U.S. government shutdown, the market response was subdued, with many investors viewing the risk as temporary and manageable.
Performance
The Fund’s overweight exposure to Seagate Technology Holdings PLC contributed to performance. It reported revenue growth and gross margins driven by demand for its high-capacity drives and execution of its heat-assisted magnetic recording technology roadmap. The company maintained confidence in its strategic objectives, supported by demand visibility and ongoing customer qualifications for its new products.
Overweight exposure to Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. detracted from performance. The stock fell because of a lowered full-year forecast and ongoing consumer-value concerns. Despite positive June and July trends, macroeconomic pressures contributed to uncertainty, impacting investor confidence.
At a sector level, stock selection within the technology hardware and semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and health care technology and retailing segments contributed to performance. Selection in industrials and the communication services and media industries detracted from performance.
Portfolio activity
There were no significant trades made in the Fund for the period.
Outlook
The sub-advisor is focused on fundamentals of the economy and company earnings. The sub-advisor projects S&P 500 Index earnings to rise 8% for 2025 and 14% for 2026.
The sub-advisor is cautiously optimistic about U.S. equity markets, with further potential Fed interest-rate cuts and trade negotiations offering support. However, geopolitical tensions and evolving fiscal policies in the U.S. and globally could introduce volatility. The sub-advisor will monitor market developments and adjust strategies as needed to navigate potential uncertainties.
