For investors UK is now ‘an attractive place to be'

The chief executive of James Henderson – a British-American global asset management group headquartered in London – Ali Dibadj, has said international investors are 'starting to take notice' of investment opportunities in the UK, adding to the growing chorus of senior finance executives who are bullish about British assets. The company offers a range of financial products to individuals, intermediary advisors and institutional investors globally, under the trade name Janus Henderson – the groups holding company. 'There is an enormous opportunity, not just for investors to invest in the UK, but to open up the UK to investors around the world.' Dibadj said. 'The UK has a stable political backdrop and has solid foundations for growth – a UK consumer that is in real wage growth and has built up savings since covid, businesses that have been conservative in their borrowings, and banks that have re-built their balance sheets since the global financial crisis.' Dibadj, who joined Janus Henderson in 2022 from Alliance Bernstein, added that a likely lower interest rate environment in the UK and a stock market that trades at a 'significant valuation discount' to those elsewhere in the world were among other reasons to be optimistic. 'A stable political backdrop and a modestly growing economy at a very reasonable valuation is a solid place to be,' said the 50-year-old. 'International investors are starting to take notice and there has been an uptick in inflows to UK equities from overseas.' UK-focused funds have posted considerable outflows following Brexit and several bouts of political upheaval, but the pace of withdrawals has slowed in recent months. Data from Calastone showed net outflows of £449m from UK equity funds in May were down to half the monthly average for the past three years. However, equity funds have only recorded one month of positive flows in the past four years. New York-based Dibadj is the latest high-profile investment executive to single out potential investment opportunities in the UK. In May, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink told The Times that the world's largest asset manager had been increasing investment in 'undervalued' UK assets. Fink said the $11.6m asset manager had added to its UK positions 'across the board' and claimed some of the negativity shown towards British companies 'was probably not warranted.' Buses go past the Bank of England building, in London, Britain. — Reuters 'I have more confidence in the UK economy today than I did a year ago,' Fink said. The 72-year-old pointed to the growth agenda fostered by the UK government. He highlighted in particular that the Competition and Markets Authority has sped up its decision-making. 'I don't know what's changed it but it's a good change,' Fink said. JPMorgan chief Jamie Dimon also recently backed the government's approach. He told Financial Times in April that 'there's much to like' about Labour's pro-growth agenda. Other investment leaders are pointing to renewed interest in European assets amid uncertainty following the introduction of trade tariffs by US president Donald Trump. Growth minded: Dibadj praised the UK government for 'real conviction' in pushing through market reforms that aim to spur growth and investment, such as the recent Mansion House Accord. This saw several of the UK's largest pension providers commit to allocating at least 10 per cent of their defined contribution assets to private markets by 2030. At least half of those asset will go to investments in the UK. 'There is a growth-minded government that has shown it will take action, a catalyst to kick start investment,' said Dibadj. 'That, combined with the opportunity that existing valuations present, are what makes the UK such an attractive proposition moving forward.'

3 Mutual Funds to Grab as Semiconductor Sales Continue to Soar

The semiconductor market is staging a solid rebound, thanks to the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, especially generative AI, which has been pushing demand for microchips. Robust demand across various sectors has resulted in sharp revenue gains for semiconductor companies in recent quarters. This surge has helped drive broader market gains, making semiconductors a key player in powering last year's market upswing. In light of these favorable developments, investing in mutual funds that focus on semiconductors — such as Janus Henderson Global Technology and Innovation Fund JNGTX, Fidelity Advisor Semiconductors Fund Class I FELIX and DWS Science and Technology A KTCAX — could be a strategic investment move. The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) reported that global semiconductor sales jumped 3.5% month over month in May, reaching $59 billion from $57 billion in April. On a year-over-year basis, sales jumped 19.8% in May, marking the 12th straight month of annual growth exceeding 17%. SIA President and CEO John Neuffer said, 'Global semiconductor sales remained strong in May, edging above the previous month's total and remaining well ahead of sales from the same month last year.' Earlier in the year, semiconductor sales declined marginally as concerns grew over the competitiveness of U.S. tech companies following the launch of the Chinese budget AI model, DeepSeek. However, industry experts soon dismissed the threat by labeling DeepSeek as overly hyped. May's robust growth in sales follows an outstanding 2024, during which global semiconductor revenues reached $627.6 billion — a 19.1% jump from $526.8 billion in 2023. The final quarter of 2024 alone saw a 17.1% year-over-year increase, totaling $170.9 billion. The growth was driven largely by robust demand from data centers and strong contributions from memory chips. With continued investments in AI technologies, the semiconductor sector is expected to maintain strong momentum, with analysts forecasting continued double-digit growth into 2025. We have, thus, selected three mutual funds with significant exposure to semiconductor producers. These funds carry a Zacks Mutual Fund Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) and are poised to gain from the above factors. Moreover, these funds have encouraging three- and five-year returns. Additionally, the minimum initial investment is within $5000. We expect these funds to outperform their peers in the future. Remember, the goal of the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank is to guide investors to identify potential winners and losers. Unlike most of the fund-rating systems, the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank is not just focused on past performance but also on the likely future success of the fund. The question here is: why should investors consider mutual funds? Reduced transaction costs and diversification of portfolio without several commission charges that are associated with stock purchases are primarily why one should be parking money in mutual funds (read more: Mutual Funds: Advantages, Disadvantages, and How They Make Investors Money). Janus Henderson Global Technology and Innovation Fund aims for long-term growth of capital and specializes in technology.
