What is temporary, and what is sustainable? In our latest market update, Bo Knudsen, our CEO and portfolio manager, shares his perspectives on recent market developments and the long-term opportunities he sees across AI, trusted networks, and electrification.

Market leadership has been unusually narrow in 2026, with a small group of companies driving a disproportionate share of global equity returns.

The speed of change is extraordinary, with the transition to a multipolar world creating geopolitical fragmentation and the “rise of the nation state” now happening at an accelerating pace. However, the uncertainty of change can also create blind spots if you focus too much on the daily news flow rather than the long-term fundamental trajectories.

We have identified four pivotal changes that point to an emerging change in market trends with investors refocusing more on fundamental and structural growth. These four changes are a revival of quality stocks, broadening out of the AI theme, the rise of China and India and the peak of US equity market capitalisation dominance.

As we embark on a new year , Bo Knudsen, our CEO and Portfolio Manager, shares his perspectives on recent market developments and where he sees opportunities as the global investment landscape broadens.
