JOM Silkkitie Asia Equity Investment Fund s NAV was 260.83 at the end of April, so the performance during the month stood at +2.03%. Since fund inception (31 st July 2009) the NAV has increased by +160.83%, thus the annual performance has been +11.57%. In April, the cause of capital market stress shifted from trade war concerns to the US 10-year bond yield, which exceeded the psychologically important 3 percent level momentarily. For this reason, many emerging markets with foreign investors experienced more or less severe corrections. In Asia, the biggest sell-offs were seen in the Southeast Asian countries, such as Indonesia (-3.14%), the Philippines (-2.01%) and Vietnam (-10.58%), where institutional investors still have relatively weak buffers compared to e.g. Thailand and Malaysia. Also, countries with current account deficit, such as the Philippines and Indonesia, are more vulnerable when foreign investors are selling their holdings as the so called external risks increase. On the other hand, we believe that especially in Indonesia the lucrative valuations and cyclical growth are slowly beginning to attract foreign capital back to the market.

Vietnam s situation Vietnam s market has in every respect, been on fire for the past few years. GDP growth is flirting with 7% annually, exports are booming, credit growth is very robust, FDI and portfolio investments have been growing rapidly and stock market has reached new all-time highs. VNINDEX rose in local currency terms in 2016 by +14.8%, in 2017 by +48% and until early April YTD 2018 performance was 19.7%. As we have noted earlier, index valuation had climbed to relatively expensive levels. One of the notable bright spots of the economy has been the export sector. According to IMF, Vietnam s global share of low end manufactured goods have risen by +1.5% over the past five years, while in final electronic goods country s global market share has risen by 3% in the past three years these are very large leaps for a relatively small economy, and Vietnam has clearly been the export growth champion of ASEAN countries. Thus, country s current account is positive. However, given all the positives, it is currently easier to think of areas that may slow down a bit or can disappoint investors, than factors that could further make country s case even brighter. For example, within construction sector, while backlogs are still healthy, margins are under pressure as raw material prices and other costs have started to creep up. Also cyclical growth slowdown is also facing real estate market after gogo years of 2015-17. Finally, bank loan growth of +20% for the next few years is somewhat too high, in our opinion. Thus, expectations seem to be on the high side. Due to above mentioned factors, we have reduced weight of Vietnam during April as we believe that market will now consolidate after heavy returns of last few years. This is further supported by local broker s customer s very high margin lending levels, that are, according to market chatter, being tightened by the local regulator. In addition, as Vietnam was previously non-correlated to global equity markets given the vivid local investor base, during the last 12 months or so, foreign ownership of the market has grown substantially, and therefore market correlation to other equity markets have shoot up. From Vietnam, we cut jewelry company PNJ s weight by half, while we sold off CTD and PAN, as their profits are not expected to grow in 2018. Overall Vietnam s weight reduced from 20% in March to 12% in April. We also increased Indonesia s weight somewhat as market rout made some larger stocks very cheap. From Pakistan we acquired two new companies that operate in financial and industrial sectors. Both pay around 4% dividend and their PEs are 6x and 7.7x for 2018. Phu Nhuan Jewelry 210 000 160 000 110 000 60 000 10 000 3.2.2012 3.2.2013 3.2.2014 3.2.2015 3.2.2016 3.2.2017 3.2.2018 Phu Nhuan Jewelry (PNJ) is the largest jewelry retailer and manufacturer in Vietnam. Initially we bought PNJ back in October 2012. FOL (foreign ownership limit) has been full for many years, thus we managed to reduce PNJ s weight at 218,000vnd, that is a premium to selling point in early April. PNJ has returned over 700% since our purchase.

Finally many portfolio companies have returned dividend payments or increased dividends. This is a sign of improving confidence. We increased weights of some larger companies as stock prices became cheaper due to continuous foreign selling.

IDR has been weak due to the fact that Indonesia s current account has been in deficit since 2012, but also developed countries central bank monetary policies have made monetary flows volatile for the past 10 years.
