JANUARY MARKET COMMENTARY
The New Year began positively, most likely on the back of some appetite for risk
returning. Corporate bond spreads narrowed and global equity indices advanced.
However, towards the end of the month global equities tumbled as President Obama
stated his intention to reform banking regulation and prevent deposit taking
banks from undertaking any proprietary trading.
In the US, the Federal Reserve kept interest rates at 0.25% in January, and the
overall tone of the statement was a little more upbeat. Q4 GDP figures indicated
the US grew at an annualised rate of 5.7%. Producer prices increased as higher
food costs impacted. Retail sales fell over the month, suggesting that rising
unemployment, tight credit and a struggling housing market are holding back the
country's largest sector.
In Europe there was no change in the monetary policy stance and no new
announcements on the liquidity provisions at January's European Central Bank
meeting. Jean-Claude Trichet, President of the ECB, continued to view the 1%
rate as 'appropriate' and described inflation pressures as 'subdued' given the
uneven recovery. European consumer prices accelerated at their fastest pace in
almost a year as the cold weather caused oil prices to rise. Unemployment had
increased by the end of 2009, and PMI data declined as modest improvements in
manufacturing data were outweighed by falling services figures.
In January, the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee kept interest rates
at 0.5%, and maintained Quantitative Easing at GBP200bn. There are signs that
the UK economy may be emerging from recession, with a return to growth for the
first time in six quarters, as GDP data reported a 0.1% rate of growth in the
fourth quarter of last year. Unemployment declined at the fastest pace since
spring 2007, housing data suggested property prices are rising, and increased
industrial production shows firms are raising production to cope with the
gradual recovery in global demand. UK retail sales were weak over the festive
season as price increases and worries over job security caused consumers to cut
back on purchases.
In Japan, the bulk of economic data showed growth was stronger at the start of
2010. Demand for Japanese exports increased across other Asian countries and,
encouragingly, there has been a much needed improvement in industrial
production. However, doubt remains on the medium term outlook, as the need for
fiscal tightening and the threat of deflation drags on for the foreseeable
future.
PORTFOLIO NEWS
The company remains committed to 16 Private Equity funds, with commitments
totalling US$213.9 million. No new commitments were made during January. The
total drawn down on commitments made is approximately US$116.9 million, with
three capital calls being made in January, totalling US$1.4 million. The company
has received total distributions of US$6.5 million since inception, with US$
854,662 received in January. Revaluations were received from two managers in
January, these were both upwards revaluations.
The portfolio holds two specialty funds, one of which, Aarkad, remains
suspended. We advised in last month's factsheet that we have written its
valuation down by 75%. No further substantive information has been released by
Aarkad to enable us to adjust further that price adjustment. We are looking at
alternative means of unlocking what written down value remains and will report
progress to date in next month's factsheet.
The Strategic Hedge Funds portfolio was up for January. Our multi-strategy
manager registered a gain, driven by the rally in its airline related ABS
positions. The global macro manager posted a loss, largely on poor performance
of its relative value equity trades.
The portfolio's commitment cover which includes cash and the strategic hedge
funds was 89.9% at the end of the month.
