Commentary
Performance as at Q3 2023 - In the US, the July Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rate accelerated by 3.2% year-on-year (YoY) having been expected to accelerate by 3.3% YoY. Core inflation, which excludes more volatile food and energy prices, rose by 4.7% YoY in July, in line with consensus expectations. Both headline and core month-on-month (MoM) inflation prints accelerated by 0.2% in July, also in line with consensus expectations. The labour market continued to show signs of cooling, but still remained very tight by historical standards. Total non-farm payrolls employment came in slightly below surveyed expectations while rising 187k in July – 13k below a consensus of 200k. Primary contributors to July’s print were in private services where education and health services saw the highest increases. The unemployment rate fell to 3.5% and hourly earnings picked up to 0.3%, holding annual wage growth at 4.4%. The data overall suggested a still-resilient labour market without much slack. During the month, members of the Federal Reserve (the Fed) met in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, for the annual symposium. The Chair of the Fed, Jerome Powell, struck a fairly hawkish tone during his speech, stating “we are prepared to raise rates further if appropriate, and intend to hold policy at a restrictive level until we are confident that inflation is moving sustainably down toward our objective”.
In the Euro Area, GDP figures for the second quarter of 2023 were published during the month, with GDP increasing by 0.3% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) as expected, in line with the Q1 2023 increase in GDP. This took the YoY GDP growth rate to 0.6% YoY. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate remained unchanged at 6.4% in the month of July, in line with consensus expectations. Christine Lagarde, President of the European Central Bank (ECB), also spoke at the Jackson Hole symposium, and echoed Jerome Powell’s comments. Concluding her speech, Lagarde stated that the current environment for the ECB would mean “setting interest rates at sufficiently restrictive levels for as long as necessary to achieve a timely return of inflation to our 2% medium-term target”. Inflation accelerated by 5.3% YoY in July, having been expected to rise by 5.1% YoY instead. MoM inflation also surprised to the upside in July, with prices accelerating by 0.6% MoM instead of 0.4% expected. Turning to the UK, the Bank of England raised interest rates by 0.25% to 5.25% in August. Two members of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) preferred to increase the Bank Rate by 0.5%, to 5.5%, while one member preferred to maintain the Bank Rate at 5%. UK CPI inflation fell from 7.9% YoY in June to 6.8% YoY in July, marginally ahead of the 6.7% YoY expected.

Important Information
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

Important Information
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

These risk ratings have been developed by Prudential to help provide an indication of a fund’s potential level of risk and reward based on the type of assets which may be held by the fund. Other companies may use different descriptions and as such these risk ratings should not be considered as generic across the fund management industry.
We regularly review our fund risk ratings, so they may change in the future. If, in our view, there is a material change in the fund's level of risk, for example due to a significant change to the assets held by the fund or in the way the fund is managed, we will provide information on the new risk rating. We recommend that you make sure you understand the risk rating of any fund before you invest.
You should also consider discussing your decision and the appropriateness of a fund's risk rating with an adviser.
Medium to Higher Risk
These funds offer a diverse geographical spread of equity investment or have multi-asset strategies with a specialist focus (e.g. ethical). The equity funds within this category will have greater overseas exposure and underlying volatility than the "medium" sector.

Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in GBP with gross income reinvested. The value of your investment can go down as well as up so you might get back less than you put in.
