NAB Morning Call · Weekend Edition: 2025: Less growth, but still lots of opportunity · 7 Feb 2025 podcast

We're a little bit cautious on them right now because I'll be a bit uncertain around what the trade policy impacts will be on those emerging market companies, but having a strategic weight to emerging markets that's around about the weight represented in, say, the All-Country World Index would make sense for diversification purposes.

And I think there's another interesting, just to get perhaps a little bit more country-specific, Japan's also interesting, much more favourable valuations than...

What we're seeing particularly in the US, we're seeing that growth come through.

In Japan, we're seeing now some increased CapEx.

We're expecting earnings growth to come through and at a much more attractive valuation point because the market hasn't really priced all of that in yet.

Yeah, we've got a pretty favourable view on Japan.

You know, we're a little bit muted in our views at the moment and where we're taking strong agri-weight positions and that's just as a result of the pandemic.

the policy uncertainty.

But, you know, I think that there's a lot of, you know, nice underlying fundamentals there that haven't really been fully appreciated by the market and those valuation points are looking pretty attractive.

So I think, you know, just in terms of a country-specific opportunity, that's

Yeah, a little bit of both, actually.

So I think you're right that most of these investment themes and AI is a good example.

There's a number of different ways that you can play them.

And again, coming back to that principle of diversification, it's generally better not to try and pick a winner or two and, you know.

put all your eggs in one or two baskets, so to speak, but to really look at getting that broad exposure to the thematic.

And you're exactly right, investing across the spectrum, AI, data centers, et cetera, that all makes perfect sense.

to the point that you don't get over-concentrated in it.

So that's where I guess the risk analysis comes in at your total portfolio level just to make sure that you don't end up with it being overly exposed or overly concentrated in a particular theme or, to be honest, any exposure that's likely to be leveraged to, you know,

a specific return driver or market event, for example.

So, yeah, it's a little bit of both.
