Management commentary
January 2025
January was marked by increased volatility, driven by Fed rate expectations and fluctuations in equity and bond markets. In response to this environment, the MACH strategy adjusted its exposures to limit losses and seize rebound opportunities.
At the beginning of the month, equity and bond indices declined as investors exercised caution following the release of the minutes from the Fed’s latest meeting on January 8 and mixed employment data, amid inflation concerns and the approaching inauguration of Donald Trump. In response to this situation, the MACH strategy reduced its equity exposure to limit risks. At the same time, the strategy maintained a short position on bonds, which contributed to performance.
Between January 10 and 14, the strategy shifted to a short position on equities, benefiting from the continued decline in equity and bond indices. This approach helped erase the losses recorded at the beginning of the month.
From January 15 onward, markets began to rebound. The strategy swiftly adjusted its positions, going long on equities and bonds, generating positive results. This responsiveness marked an excellent period for the funds, allowing performance to return to positive territory for the month.
At the end of the month, anticipation of the Fed’s interest rate announcements heightened volatility, particularly with sharp declines on January 27 and 29. The MACH strategy maintained its long positions in equities and bonds while slightly reducing its risk. The decision to retain this exposure despite the volatility proved to be wise, allowing the funds to fully benefit from the rebound in indices following the Fed’s confirmation of decisions in line with expectations.
The strategy posted a monthly net performance of +1.39 %* for Ouessant (A share) and +4.54 %* for Mach 3 (A share).
Below is a breakdown of Ouessant’s daily returns and cumulative returns contribution in January 2025** :
*Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. They are net of fees. The funds carry a risk of capital loss.
**These data refer to past periods and are not necessarily representative of future changes in the allocation of risk. The risk allocation is broadly similar for the Ouessant and Mach 3 funds. Naturally, there may be a slight difference linked to different operational factors.

Annual performance

Main risks
Risk of capital loss
Any investment in equities presents a risk of capital loss. The investors may not regain their initial investment value. The Common Fund offers neither guarantee nor protection of the initial capital.
Model Risk
The management process is based on the development of a mathematical quantitative management model to identify signals based on past statistical results. There is a risk that this model should not be efficient, as there is no guarantee that past market situations will recur in the future.
Equity risk
Equity risk corresponds to a decline in equity markets. The funds being exposed to equities, the net asset value may fall significantly.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk corresponds to the risk associated with a rise in bond market rates, which causes a decrease in bond prices and, consequently, a fall in the net asset value of the funds, when exposed to this risk.
Credit risk
It represents the possible risk of a downgrade of the issuer’s signature and the risk that the issuer may not be able to meet its repayments, which will lead to a reduction in the net asset value of the funds.
Risk associated with commodities
The commodities components may have a significantly different evolution from the traditional securities markets (equities, bonds). The climatic and geopolitical factors may also alter the offer and demand levels of the considered underlying, in other words modify the expected rarity of this latter on the market. However the components belonging to the same commodities market among the three main represented, i.e. energy, metals or agricultural products, may have more strongly correlated evolutions with each other. An unfavourable evolution of these markets may make the fund Net Asset Value decrease.
Currency Risk
The portfolio may be invested in securities not denominated in euro. The deterioration in the exchange rate may result in a decrease in the net asset value. The investor is therefore exposed to a foreign exchange risk which can however be partially or totally hedged. Currency risk is included in our models.
Emerging market risk
The operating and supervision conditions of the emerging markets may deviate from standard prevailing on the international places; the information on some equities may be uncomplete and their liquidity more reduced. The evolution of these securities price may consequently vary very strongly and entail a decrease of the ETFs value invested on these markets and consequently the Net Asset Value of the Fund.
