October was a strange month because the markets on the last day of the month lost everything they had gained in the current month. So the performance has been erased. We are waiting to see what happens in the US elections, certainly volatility will increase in the coming weeks, because sentiments will change often. Our job is to remain rational and take advantage of the possible opportunities that could arise from excessive volatility.
We have lowered our equity exposure and increased cash in the current month, so we can look at market trends with more serenity and seize opportunities.
