Classe d'actions

Investir dans des technologies qui façonnent l'avenir.

L'avancement technologique continue d'accélérer à un rythme rapide et perturbateur, transformant notre façon de travailler, de communiquer et de créer de la valeur. Il joue un rôle essentiel dans l'amélioration de la productivité dans tous les secteurs de la société. Les industries de la technologie, des médias et des télécommunications bénéficient de flux de revenus robustes et récurrents, soutenus par de multiples moteurs de croissance structurelle à long terme. L'adoption généralisée de l'informatique en nuage et de l'intelligence artificielle a atteint un niveau de maturité qui permet une mise en œuvre évolutive, posant les bases d'une innovation durable et d'une création de valeur accrue.

Près de 30 % des entreprises de l'indice MSCI World sont des entreprises de télécommunications, de médias et de technologie. Le secteur technologique englobe une variété de sous-secteurs, y compris le matériel, les logiciels, le commerce électronique et les télécommunications. En raison de sa composition large et de sa portée mondiale, le secteur est souvent considéré comme une source importante de diversification des risques et d'exposition à la croissance structurelle sur le marché.

Le fonds d'actions géré activement investit généralement dans entre 40 et 60 entreprises à travers une large gamme de sous-secteurs, recherchant celles avec des évaluations raisonnables et des perspectives de croissance attrayantes à moyen et long terme.

La sélection des actions est basée sur quatre piliers: identifier les tendances, la création de valeur avec un accent sur l'allocation de capital, l'élan des bénéfices, et l'évaluation à moyen et long terme.

Domaines d'investissement principaux : Logiciels et services, matériel et électronique, intelligence artificielle (IA), Cloud 2.0, cybersécurité, très haut débit mobile – 5G, Internet des objets (IoT), transport autonome, automatisation et robotique.

Commentaires

Stock market volatility in September, as measured by the VIX index, a widely used measure of U.S. stock market volatility, averaged at 16 for the month, below its long-term historical average. This month, the portfolio achieved an absolute return of 0.98 per cent in EUR, trailing the benchmark's return of 6.60 per cent. Year to date, the portfolio has delivered an absolute return of 24.96 per cent, with a relative performance of -2.10 per cent compared to the benchmark. Among the notable positive contributors in the long book were Skyworks, Embracer and TSMC, while Adyen, Intuit and Amazon.com detracted from performance. Skyworks contributed positively as management commentary increased confidence that the pending merger with Qorvo would close on schedule. Embracer also contributed positively, supported by continued share buybacks and improved refinancing terms, while TSMC rose after reporting strong monthly revenue, driven by continued demand for AI chips. Adyen detracted amid investor concerns that agentic commerce could disintermediate parts of the payments value chain. Intuit detracted as renewed concerns around AI-driven disruption weighed on software stocks. Amazon.com also detracted as investors focused on the potential impact of emerging AI shopping agents on its retail and advertising businesses. The technology-, media and telecom sectors are characterized by strong, stable earnings and there are several structural growth drivers in the sectors. We are still in the early innings of cloud computing and artificial intelligence and our belief is that this provides a strong foundation for growth going forward.
