Q2 2026 Fund Commentary
Commentary and opinions are provided by Mackenzie Investments.
Market commentary
The global economy steadied in the second quarter after the energy shock that dominated the start of the year. Crude oil prices stayed high through much of the quarter before retreating late as tensions in the Middle East eased and shipping through the Strait of Hormuz began to resume. The pullback in oil lowered input costs for energy-importing economies and helped cool fears of a broader inflation shock.
Major central banks stayed cautious. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) and the Bank of Canada both held interest rates unchanged, and the Fed signaled that rate increases were possible later in the year. The European Central Bank raised its policy interest rates at its June meeting in response to rising inflationary pressures.
Global equity markets rose in the second quarter. Developed markets gained about 13%, led by a strong rally in the U.S. Japanese equities delivered a strong return, supported by firm economic data and continuing corporate governance reforms, though a weaker yen stayed in focus for policymakers. Emerging markets outperformed, rising close to 23%, led by extraordinary gains in South Korea and Taiwan on demand tied to artificial intelligence (AI) and semiconductors, while Chinese and Indian equities lagged.
Performance
Stock selection in the communication services sector and underweight exposure to real estate contributed to performance.
Relative exposure to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSMC) cand Lam Research Corp. contributed to performance. TSMC shares benefited from demand for leading-edge process technologies and AI, reporting rising revenue and earnings. Lam Research reported record revenue and earnings, citing AI-driven demand across the chip industry.
Stock selection in the information technology, financials and industrials sectors detracted from performance.
Overweight exposure to CME Group Inc. and underweight exposure to Micron Technology Inc. detracted from the Fund’s performance. CME Group shares fell after it announced a major leadership transition that introduced uncertainty. Micron Technology benefited from accelerating AI-related memory demand, tight industry supply and stronger pricing.
Portfolio activity
Micron Technology and Banco Santander SA were added to the Fund. The sub-advisor increased NVIDIA Corp., Alphabet Inc. and Apple Inc. Other increases were TSMC, Amazon.com Inc. and Microsoft Corp., to add to information technology and semiconductor exposure.
McKesson Corp. and Japan Exchange Group Inc. were sold while Assa Abloy AB was reduced.
