Manager Commentary
Quarterly Highlights - Q1 2026
- The first quarter of 2026 was marked by a significant increase in commodity prices and equity market volatility driven by escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and fears around AI disruption. Global REITs started the year off strong in January and February as investors gravitated towards asset heavy sectors viewed as less exposed to direct disruption from artificial intelligence applications. In March, an increase in geopolitical uncertainty from the U.S.-Iran conflict led to a 50%+ spike in the price of oil, ending the month over $100 per barrel. Higher oil and gas prices led to renewed fears of higher inflation resulting in rising bond yields with expectations for further central bank rate cuts being walked back. The combination of higher commodity prices, higher rates and concerns about the sustainability of global economic growth resulted in a selloff in equity markets in the month of March, causing REITs to retrace most of their gains for the year.
