Pacific Horizon Reports Mixed Interim Results Amid Market Challenges

An update from Pacific Horizon Investment Trust PLC ( (GB:PHI) ) is now available.

Pacific Horizon Investment Trust PLC reported a mixed performance for the six months ending January 2025, with a net asset value total return of 3.0%, falling short of the 6.7% return of its benchmark index. The company faced challenges due to a widening discount in share price and underperformance in key markets like China and Korea, despite positive contributions from Taiwan and Vietnam. The company increased its share buybacks and adjusted its portfolio by reducing exposure in India and increasing investments in China and Taiwan. Looking forward, the company remains optimistic about the long-term growth prospects in Asia, driven by favorable macroeconomic conditions and potential catalysts such as a weakening US dollar and improved sentiment towards China.
