| Fund Overview | |
| Manager Comments | Stock selection was positive across most sectors. The stocks which contributed the most to performance included the banks, particularly National Australia Bank (up 9.4%), Computershare (up 16.5%) and Monadelphous (up 9.1%). The only company to detract from performance was Whitehaven Coal (down 6.3%), which warned that first half earnings would be well below expectations due to weak coal markets and strong Australian dollar. At a stock level, the fund prefers to combine companies with attractive growth characteristics which are witnessing positive revisions, particularly dividend revisions. The fund is also favoring stocks with strong balance sheets which have the capacity and opportunity to put their balance sheets to work. The manager's view is that the Australian equity market is not expensive especially versus some other financial assets. |
