A View from Asia

| Asian Equities

  • There is currently a dichotomy between country performances within Asia, with those countries more dependent on exports (Taiwan, China and South Korea), particularly to the US, in a relatively better position.
  • The rest are a mixed bag. The second wave has exposed the vulnerabilities of physical infrastructure, especially healthcare and human resources.
  • It is a confusing time in markets and though my bias is still on the optimistic side, I prefer to be watchful in light of universal bullishness. 
     

Disclaimer

Past performance is no guarantee of future performance. The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations and you may not get back the amount originally invested. Investing in companies in emerging markets involves higher risk than investing in established economies or securities markets. Emerging Markets may have less stable legal and political systems, which could affect the safe-keeping or value of assets. The Fund’s investments may include shares in small-cap companies and these tend to be traded less frequently and in lower volumes than larger companies making them potentially less liquid and more volatile.
