Investment strategy
The main focus of the DJE Gold & Stabilitätsfonds is gold investments. For generations, gold has been considered a reliable hedge against losses arising from economic crises and in times of rapid inflation. The portfolio also includes dividend-yielding equities, with defensive business models for low-risk diversification. The fund management selects primarily companies with a good asset base, and which have a proven-track record of stable performance even in volatile market phases. In fixed income, the fund only invests in bonds with investment grade ratings. The investment strategy of the DJE Gold & Stabilitätsfonds fund is flexible to adapt to constantly changing market conditions. Foreign currency risks may be hedged.
Chances
- Under-investment by private and institutional investors and emerging market central banks with strong foreign currency reserves in the asset class of gold
- Investments in gold should have additional potential given the precious metal’s role as a monetary stabiliser in politically, socially and economically uncertain times
- Attractive initial investment level for global dividend and value stocks
Risks
- Investment in physical precious metals is subject to fluctuations
- Equity prices may exhibit relatively strong fluctuations depending on market conditions
- Price risks for bonds, particularly when interest rates on the capital markets rise
- Currency risks resulting from the portfolio’s foreign (non-EUR) investments
Monthly Commentary
In March, the DJE Gold & Stabilitätsfonds rose by 6.69% in the fund currency, Swiss francs. In euro terms, the fund rose by 4.45% due to the depreciation of the Swiss franc against the euro. The troy ounce rose in price in March by 9.08% to USD 2,229.87 and by 9.02% to EUR 2,061.47. Including this development, gold rose by 8.1% in USD or 10.3% in EUR in the first quarter of 2024 and reached a new record high. Continued demand from central banks had a positive effect, especially from China, where the People's Bank of China (PBOC) further expanded its gold purchases. Demand for jewelry has also increased again in China since the beginning of the year, which is probably due to the fact that investment alternatives such as the Chinese stock and real estate markets still do not appear particularly attractive for investments. Gold was also supported by statements from members of the US Federal Reserve that three key interest rate cuts were still likely for the current year. Although the timing and extent of interest rate cuts remains uncertain, historically, low interest rates have proven to be positive for gold prices. The gold quota rose slightly from 29.90% to 30.26%. The global stock index MSCI World (including dividends) rose by 3.22% in March. All subsectors of the index performed positively in March. The strongest gains came from the energy and building materials & materials sectors (both overweight in the fund) and utilities (underweight in the fund). The sector allocation thus had a positive effect on the fund price development compared to the world stock index. The fund management increased the equity quota from 37.92% to 38.71%. On the bond side, the fund was able to benefit primarily from the reduced risk premiums on high-quality corporate bonds, while high-quality government bonds predominantly developed sideways. The fund's bond ratio remained almost unchanged at 30.05% (previous month: 30.71%). Liquidity fell from 1.47% to 0.98%.
