As fears of a recession grip stock markets and consumers get squeezed, outperforming fund manager Sean Peche is betting on an unexpected retail player: the French multinational Carrefour . Peche, a portfolio manager at Ranmore Fund Management, highlighted the company's defensive nature and ability to grow earnings amid inflation as a key attractive quality. Peche noted that Carrefour has significantly increased its revenue over the past few years while maintaining stable inventory levels. The retailer's total revenue increased from 74.2 billion euros ($80.96 billion) in 2018 to 84.9 billion euros in 2023, according to FactSet data, a rise of 14.4%. The fund manager also highlighted Carrefour's growth in own-label products, which now account for nearly 40% of revenues.

Picking great stocks and avoiding disastrous investments enabled the Ranmore Global Equity Fund to beat the S & P 500 over the past two years, according to its fund manager. The fund, run by portfolio manager Sean Peche, returned 31% in 2023 compared to 24% for the S & P 500 . The Ranmore fund also outperformed its benchmark with 1.8% total returns in 2022 when the S & P 500 and broader indexes nearly fell into a bear market. The fund manager says they take a probability-based approach with many small positions rather than a few big bets. However, according to the fund manager, the market appears to be undervaluing its cash and securities.

However, the company's revenues and profits have surged since then, and one outperforming fund manager sees the current valuation as a buying opportunity. Alibaba shares are traded in the U.S., Hong Kong and Germany. BABA 1Y line The slump in the company's share price came amid concerns of an economic slowdown in China and increased regulation of the internet sector by authorities in Beijing. Alibaba's cheap share buyback Lapping also pointed to the impact of Alibaba's share buyback program as distinct compared to many richly valued U.S. tech darlings. However, with its share price now 65% off its peak, Alibaba's compensation costs have dwindled dramatically.

"It feels like we've passed the peak of pessimism about the UK," said Daniel Lockyer, senior fund manager at 7 billion-pound investment and advice group Hawksmoor Investment Management, which increased its exposure to UK companies in August. Consumer stocks are outperforming as investors bet on the UK cost of living crisis becoming less intense. Reuters Graphics Reuters GraphicsLeigh Himsworth, UK fund manager at Fidelity International, said he was "trying to pick off UK retailers we can buy", while it was also "time to pick up some of the (UK) real estate sector." But while noting good economic reasons to call an upturn for UK stocks, fund managers also stressed the need for further steps from policymakers to revive interest in British equities. Premier Miton is lobbying policymakers to introduce a new tax-efficient investment vehicle for UK stocks.

May 18 (Reuters) - Equity markets in North Asia will outperform the broader region this year, buoyed by China's reopening and a post-pandemic recovery-led earnings rebound, investors and strategists said.
