Portfolio Strategy
Q1 2026
For Equities, we maintain a neutral stance as market sentiment remains challenged by weak economic growth, rising inflation expectations, foreign selling, and geopolitical uncertainty. The market extended its decline during the month, weighed down by softer corporate earnings and MSCI rebalancing-related outflows. Portfolio positioning remains defensive, with a preference for dividend-paying and resilient sectors while maintaining offshore exposure through Fund-of-Funds investments. We continue to monitor macroeconomic developments, earnings trends, and market valuations for opportunities to selectively increase risk exposure as conditions stabilize.

Performance and Allocation Exposure
For Equities, we increased exposure to Peso Metro Money Market Fund while reducing allocations to Metro High Dividend Fund and Metro Equity Fund. Following the receipt of dividend distributions from the Metro High Dividend Funds part of the proceeds was rotated into cash to strengthen the portfolio’s defensive positioning. Exposure to Fund-of-Funds was maintained to retain diversification benefits and capture potential gains from continued Peso weakness. These changes reflect a more conservative approach while preserving participation in both local and offshore market opportunities.
