AI Strategy X-Ray

The fund posted a modest 20.78% YTD return while the KSE-30 benchmark lagged at 6.81%, reflecting a relative outperformance despite a sharp 8.7% month‑on‑month drop in the broader market. Weakness was driven by geopolitical tension, foreign outflows and softer corporate earnings, yet macro indicators such as IMF programme progress and potential EFF/RSF disbursements provided a supportive backdrop. The fund’s NAV held steady at PKR 32.32, aided by a high‑yielding concentration in energy equities.

Key Manager Actions

  • Portfolio Shift: The fund trimmed exposure to non‑energy assets, boosting the weight of Oil & Gas Exploration Company to just under 50% and raising overall sector concentration to over 80%, a clear pivot toward high‑yield energy equities.
  • Yield/Return Dynamics: Despite a challenging market, the fund delivered a 20.78% YTD return, outpacing the benchmark’s 6.81% thanks to strong dividend yields from its energy holdings and effective cash management.
  • Forward Outlook: Management expects the IMF review to unlock up to $1.3 bn in financing, which could buoy investor sentiment and support energy sector earnings, but geopolitical volatility and commodity price fluctuations remain key headwinds.
