Carmignac Multi Expertise fund performance

Take a look at the Fund's performance supported by our Fund managers’ market commentary and strategy insight.

Market environment

US data continues to reflect a degree of economic resilience, with inflation figures still high. However, the disinflation trend continues in Europe. In the light of this, the Fed and the ECB are sticking to their plan and will probably start cutting interest rates this summer. The Bank of Japan bucked the trend: it put an end to eight years of negative interest rates, even amid increasing signs of substantial pay rises. This backdrop of robust growth, persistent inflation and more accommodative central banks is keeping the risky asset rally alive. The S&P 500 is having its best start to a year since 2019. Although the rally has mainly been fuelled by the Magnificent Seven, it spread to more corners of the market at the end of the month when cyclical sectors rebounded as commodity prices climbed. Oil was up 5% to $87 a barrel (Brent), while gold set a new record of more than $2,200 an ounce. Equity markets seem to have accepted the optimistic scenario under which central banks lower interest rates and the economy slows moderately, meaning that valuations are high though supported by earnings growth. Credit also continued to perform well. European yields eased in March, while the growth differential between the United States and the Eurozone persists.

Performance commentary

The Fund delivered a positive return, and beat its reference indicator. Our equity component made a substantial contribution to the Fund’s performance, mainly through Carmignac Portfolio Investissement and Carmignac Portfolio Grandchildren. At a fixed income level, our positions in Carmignac Portfolio Global Bond and Carmignac Portfolio Credit were also profitable. Our diversified investments appreciated too, through a position in Carmignac Portfolio Patrimoine. We are currently exposed to alternative investment funds through positions in Carmignac Absolute Return Europe and Carmignac Portfolio Merger Arbitrage Plus, which raised the performance of Carmignac Multi Expertise in March.

Outlook strategy

Over the next few months, we expect global growth to stabilise as the manufacturing cycle picks up. The combination of slower but firmer economic growth and more accommodative central banks should keep macroeconomic conditions favourable for risky assets. However, as financial markets have already priced it in, with indices at record levels, a selective approach and profit-taking are necessary. We remain optimistic about artificial intelligence and obesity treatments, while also strengthening positions in sectors that had been lagging and diversifying others, especially in industrials. Credit still has strong upside potential as a result of carry. At a sovereign debt level, our exposure to interest rate movements remains limited as, despite signs of central banks pivoting, solid inflation and economic data call for caution, especially at the long end of the yield curve. On 18 March 2024, the Carmignac Profil Réactif 75 and Carmignac Profil Réactif 100 funds were merged into the Carmignac Profil Réactif 50 fund, renamed Carmignac Multi Expertise. The investment philosophy, which consists of creating a selection of funds and strategies representative of the company as a whole, stays the same. However, its application will change and the Fund will have a more stable allocation with less flexibility over exposure. The Fund now comprises three asset classes (equities, bonds, alternative), and is invested in six funds at present.
