Portfolio manager comments — Q4 2025
The fund delivered negative performance during the quarter. Economic growth is now driven almost exclusively by the themes of AI and digitalization, and we are facing a broad digital transformation that will affect all sectors of society. We remain at an early stage, where the build out of infrastructure is a prerequisite for scaling the technology. Looking ahead, development will focus partly on how existing AI models can increase productivity and creativity across industries, but also on moving beyond today’s models. The next phase may include autonomous vehicles, advanced robotics, and entirely new solutions that could reshape how we live and work.

The quarter highlighted the fragmented development within the technology sector. Hardware and infrastructure benefited from AI adoption, while certain software companies faced valuation pressure despite stable fundamentals.

The fund benefited from enablers of digitalization such as Hynix, TSMC, and Cisco, which contributed positively to performance. Software companies in the portfolio, including ServiceNow, Spotify, and Veeva Systems, were negatively affected despite solid operational development and strategic acquisitions. Fund performance was also impacted by the absence of the semiconductor company AMD, which entered into several significant partnerships, including a strategic agreement with OpenAI to supply 6 gigawatts of GPUs with a total value of tens of billions of US dollars, driving the share price sharply higher.

As a consequence of the fragmented development, the fund adjusted its exposure during the quarter toward enablers of digitalization, including purchases of the Korean memory company Hynix, the network company Nokia, the semiconductor company AMD, and the hardware companies Western Digital and Delta Electronics.

The fund also invested in software focused on the new AI infrastructure, such as the database companies Snowflake and MongoDB.

At the same time, users of digitalization such as Rightmove, Verisk, Blackline, and Atlassian were divested.

The digitalization theme continues to be influenced by AI developments. Companies that successfully combine utility with profitability in their AI strategies are assessed to have the strongest prospects going forward.
