Sector-level positioning — stance, cycle stage, what is genuinely driving the move, and the one risk that would break each case.
| Sector | Stance | What is driving it |
|---|---|---|
| Healthcare — pharma & biotech | Undervalued | Two years of underperformance have left the group below its own historical multiples just as earnings growth turns back up. New launches are scaling faster than patent cliffs erode. |
| Financials — banks, custody & brokers | Undervalued | Mid-teens earnings growth at roughly 15x forward, against about 20x for the S&P 500. Rates held higher for longer support net interest income; busier capital markets lift fees. |
| Semiconductors & AI hardware | Constructive | Hyperscaler capital spending on course to rise from roughly $0.8tn toward $1.3tn, with leading suppliers capacity-constrained into 2028. Leaders still trade near 24x forward. |
| Electrical equipment & grid | Constructive | Multi-year contracted backlog from data-centre and grid build-out. Order visibility runs years, not quarters. |
| European defence | Constructive | European defence spending legislated toward roughly €800bn a year by 2030. No dependence on the AI capex cycle — the diversifier in the book. |
| Energy — upstream & services | Late cycle | Brent above $100 with Middle East output not expected back to pre-war levels until 2027. The best-performing sector this year, up close to 50%. |
| Utilities | Neutral | Data-centre load growth converts into regulated rate base — the most visible earnings stream in the market. |
| REITs & net lease | Neutral | Net-lease names now yield around 8% on inflation-linked leases. The first group to re-rate once the Fed stops. |
| Consumer discretionary & online intermediaries | Late cycle | Fuel costs and mortgage rates above 7% squeeze the consumer; agentic-AI shopping threatens intermediaries without a loyalty moat. |
Where each sector sits in its cycle, what is actually driving the move, and the risk that would break the case.
