FUND COMMENTARY
APPLICATION AND REDEMPTION PRICES* (at 30 April 2015)
(cum distribution)
After a buoyant start to the year, the two months to end April 2015 saw a more subdued
equity market, with the S&P/ASX300 Accumulation Index losing 1.7 per cent for the period.
In part this result reflected a continuing deterioration in the iron ore price, and the “chase for
yield” appearing to take a welcome rest. The large miners and big four banks represent a
large part of the benchmark index, and a lacklustre showing from these companies translates
into a lacklustre showing for the market overall.
The Montgomery Fund’s limited interest in these sectors helped it to deliver a somewhat better
result – a positive return of 0.66 per cent for the two months, for outperformance of 2.36 per
cent. While performance suffered due to the announcement in March of some disappointing
clinical trial results for Sirtex Limited, The Fund’s other investments generally performed well,
including a material contribution from iiNet Limited, which became the target of takeover
interest.
With equity prices remaining generally on the expensive side of fair value, we remain
cautious in our approach. We continue to look for opportunities, but it may be some time
before we see them in quantity.
