Portfolio Update
Quarterly Update
Asian markets rose 5.9 percent
over the quarter, largely
driven by anticipation of
further quantitative easing in
Europe and the U.S. The Fund
outperformed, gaining 6.4
percent. Financials stocks in
particular contributed to
this. The best of these was
warehouse operator, Global
Logistic Properties after
reporting solid interim
results and announcing new
long-term investment deals in
China. The top contributor
overall, though, was
Australian-listed miner,
Newcrest as investors
responded well to its new
five-year plan. The main
detractor was a Chinese auto
company which has joint
ventures with Japanese
partners, hurt by the current
tensions between Japan and
China.
