As at June 30, 2010
Equity markets declined materially during the second quarter, erasing the gains of the early part of the year. This correction should have surprised no one, given that the S&P/TSX Composite Index advanced 65% from its lows in March 2009 to its high in April 2010, while the S&P 500 gained over 80%. We view the recent decline in stock prices as a normal correction in an ongoing bull market.
We believe a disconnect exists between stock markets and the real world economy, which has been expanding at a decent pace. It is only a matter of time before the equity markets pay heed to the growth in the economy and corporate earnings.
In response, since the end of 2009, we have drawn down our cash positions in Harbour Fund by roughly 10 percentage points, and by about eight percentage points in Harbour Growth & Income Fund. We have purchased attractively priced, high-quality equities. Existing holdings that have been increased include Cameco, Cisco Systems, Manulife Financial, and Microsoft. New holdings include Bank of America, JP Morgan and George Weston.
In global markets, concerns included the European sovereign debt crisis, signs of a slowing pace to growth within the Chinese economy, and the potential for a double-dip recession.
Harbour Foreign Equity fund reduced its cash position over the quarter to 17% from 22%. We took advantage of share price weakness to increase stakes in Air Liquide, Aryzta, General Electric, Grafton Group, MasterCard, Microsoft, and Trican Well Service. Four new holdings initiated during the quarter were leading U.S.-based banks JP Morgan and Bank of America, Canadian-based Suncor Energy, and Foster's Group, a leading beer and wine producer based in Australia.
Times like the present, when pessimism is so thick you could cut it with a knife, have proven to be times of significant opportunity for investors with a long-term time horizon. We believe the current period is one of those times.
