Commentary

International equity markets ended the year on a positive note. The main contributor was US data storage group Equinix. The company has recorded impressive sales growth on the back of demand for digital technology with data storage solutions providing scope for efficient management of energy costs. The shares were added to the Nasdaq 100 Index in December. Amongst industrials, US group BorgWarner is a leading provider of components for the autos industry that enhance fuel efficiency and control pollution from cars. The company is expanding in the Asia Pacific region, recently opening a new production facility in China. The main detractor last month was our holding in natural gas producer BG Group, which had cut back production guidance on delays to project start-ups and lost further ground on weaker energy prices. Data centre operator Telecity fell back on profit taking. However, demand for data centres is growing and Telecity has recently added capacity in the key London docklands market. New Oriental Education was subject to profit taking at year-end as the Chinese equity market had rallied strongly. The share price had recovered in recent months as an investigation into its accounting policies showed no evidence of malpractice.

Important Information

Source of portfolio data: Broadridge. 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 ongoing charges, but take no account of product charges. Ongoing charges 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 income reinvested. The value of your investment can go down as well as up so you might get back less than you put in. This factsheet is for information purposes only. If there is information or terminology included that you would like to discuss, then please contact an adviser. Investors should refer to their policy documentation and supporting brochures for fund availability, investment strategy, any product information and charges.
