Fund CommentaryDuring May the FTSE All-Share Index rose by 2.8% as risk assets continued to move higher. The positive move in the market was despite the simmering trade disputes between the US and the rest of the world, political tensions in the eurozone and a fall in emerging Markets. In reality the fact that global economic growth continues to grow at an attractive rate, coupled with a relatively subdued inflationary backdrop, means that corporates remain well positioned to grow profits and ultimately this is what positively influences share prices. The main market features during the month included the strong performance of the oil and mining sectors reflecting the strength of commodities so far in 2018. Whilst the worst performing area was telecoms which fell sharply as both BT and Vodafone disappointed.

The trust outperformed in May and was ranked in the second quartile. Rentokil and Smiths Group performed especially well in the month. Rentokil the pest control business continues to remain attractive reflecting its rate of organic growth, whilst Smiths Group was has a conglomerate corporate structure has announced that it’s in talks to merge its healthcare business with a competitor which would be positive. In addition, the trust’s lack of exposure to oil & gas was again a drag on performance.

Transactions in the month saw the trust starting a new position in Segro which is an ESG leader in the property sector and with its focus on industrial warehousing, we believe it should benefit from the structural growth of e-commerce. We exited from Shire the pharmaceutical company post a bid from Takeda the Japanese company we have sold our remaining holding.
