Monthly Strategy Summary

For the month, the long/short equity strategy led performance, contributing a 1.23% gain. The convexity bucket followed closely with a 0.98% contribution, while systematic macro was the only detractor, declining by 0.03%.

The market-neutral long/short equity bucket drove the largest overall performance contribution. Portfolio managers capitalized on strong themes, including artificial intelligence and European financials. They also successfully hedged against the broad market sell-off at month-end. Long positions in semiconductors and technology hardware generated significant gains in the US TMT sector.

Short positions in struggling software and media companies also contributed positively.
