Q4 2025 Fund Commentary
Commentary and opinions are provided by CGOV Asset Management.
Market commentary
Canadian equities were volatile during the fourth quarter of 2025 because of uncertainty and concerns around the sustainability of the equity rebound. Despite the volatility, the S&P/TSX Composite Index posted its eighth consecutive month of positive returns during the quarter, the longest such streak in more than nine years.
Thematically, performance drivers were similar to the prior quarter. The materials sector led performance and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven sentiment affected several companies in the information technology sector and beyond. The strongest-performing sectors were materials (up 11.9%) and consumer discretionary (up 11.0%), with real estate (-5.8%) and communication services (-1.7%) the weakest performers.
Performance
The Fund’s relative exposures to Quebecor Inc. and National Bank of Canada contributed to performance. Quebecor has been working to expand and grow its wireless brands nationwide and saw its market share grow. National Bank of Canada was the best performer of the “Big Six” Canadian banks during the quarter and announced a higher return on equity target for 2027.
Relative exposures to Constellation Software Inc. and Thomson Reuters Corp. detracted from the Fund’s performance. Constellation Software stock fell as investors faced uncertainty around the place of software companies in a world of AI. Thomson Reuters has also faced questions around how it will address the potential disruptions from AI. While the company’s share price fell during the quarter, the company is focused on improving its AI-enabled product offering and optimizing its pricing strategy.
At the sector level, security selection in the consumer staples and consumer discretionary sectors contributed to the Fund’s performance. Security selection within the information technology and financials sectors detracted from performance.
Portfolio activity
The sub-advisor added to the Fund a holding in Waste Connections Inc. and sold the Fund’s holding in PepsiCo Inc.
Outlook
The Fund is invested in what the sub-advisor views as high-quality businesses currently trading at an attractive discount to their intrinsic value.
