AI Strategy X-Ray

The fund posted a modest decline in February, underperforming the KSE-100 benchmark as the market fell 8.7% MoM amid heightened geopolitical tensions and weaker corporate earnings. Inflationary pressure rose sharply to 7.0% YoY, prompting the SBP to keep the policy rate at 10.5%, which pressured equity valuations. Despite a current account surplus and resilient remittances, external shocks from oil price volatility and security concerns weighed on investor sentiment.

Key Manager Actions

  • Portfolio Shift: The fund reduced exposure to high‑beta sectors, increasing cash holdings to navigate heightened geopolitical risk and volatile oil prices.
  • Yield/Return Dynamics: Despite a negative month, the fund's dividend‑focused strategy provided modest income, offsetting part of the price decline and delivering a YTD return of 14.15% versus the benchmark’s 33.78% gain.
  • Forward Outlook: The manager remains cautious, expecting the SBP to hold rates steady while monitoring inflation and external shocks; any further rate hikes could pressure equities, but a successful IMF review may unlock fresh foreign inflows.
