Manager comment
During December, Pharus Liquidity registered a performance of 0.25%, bringing the performance YTD to +3.73%. During December both American and European rates rose. The 2-year Treasury yields 4.25%, while the German government bond yields 2%. During December the best performers were Ubisoft e Walgreens, while the worst were Auchan and Banca Monte Paschi. In December we added a bond issued by Auchan, a French supermarket chain, with maturity 2026 and a great yield. We furthermore increased the exposure to Ubisoft, a gaming leading company. We believe that in 2025 it will be necessary to pay attention to the security selection, since spreads are currently low.
We remain convinced that the sector represents a very attractive investment opportunity, given the current environment and its defensive nature. Operationally, we continue to look for opportunities predominantly in the long end of our investable universe.
