HL research - our view on this fund
Though the fund maintains its bias towards more economically-sensitive areas, some companies appear less attractively-valued following the recent market rally. The managers have therefore added exposure to more defensive areas of the market; though they remain highly selective given the popularity of defensive sectors in recent years. Clive Beagles and James Lowen favour areas where they believe the attention of investors is much lower, such as bus and rail, and telecommunications firms. They continue to focus on companies with sound balance sheets and low levels of debt. The fund's performance has been exceptional over the past year, although this is not a guide to the future.
