The Carpe Diem basket continues to deliver solid Q2 performance, with the basket up 13.09% over the last year, and up 11.88% annualized since inception (Aug. 2018).
The strong Carpe Diem performance was largely due to financial and technology stocks.
Looking ahead, the unpredictable US tariff policy is a negative for global productivity. Increasing economic and geopolitical risks, alongside high North American stock market valuations, will likely lead to a more volatile second half of the year. The equity markets are still concentrated in the Magnificent 7 stocks. In this environment, investors should stay diversified, be patient, and dollar cost average-in as opportunities arise.
The Carpe Diem basket offers investors a compelling diversified North American equity portfolio. The blue-chip, income and growth focused portfolio provide long-term investors with healthy dividends and capital gains potential.
