Portfolio Update
Quarterly Update
Security selection drove performance versus the MSCI EAFE Index – Net Dividend (C$), particularly in the finance and capital equipment sectors. An overweight in the energy sector was negative. Currency selection was positive. The value opportunity, as demonstrated by the difference in valuation between the most expensive and the most attractively valued stocks in the market, remains very high. The portfolio adviser looks to take advantage of attractive valuations across a wide range of sectors, ensuring that the Portfolio remains primarily exposed to a range of idiosyncratic controversies, where research insight can add significant value.
