Recent market action suggests emerging market equities are beginning to attract more deliberate attention. While headlines remain focused on geopolitical friction and rate speculation, underlying positioning shows investors moving back into selective EM assets.
A measured uptick in Chinese equity flows, particularly into Hong Kong-listed names, is offering a focal point. Foreign capital is returning with steady conviction, as investors reassess China’s role in global portfolios.
Equities across the EM complex edged higher as global risk appetite shifted slightly on expectations that US rate cuts may arrive sooner than previously priced. While no breakout has occurred, the move matters, it signals that allocators are once again scanning for risk-adjusted opportunities beyond developed markets. Local currency exposure has also become more attractive as dollar strength fades and interest rate differentials narrow.
Many EM equity markets continue to trade well below developed market peers, both in absolute and relative terms.
Fidelity Emerging Markets Limited (LON:FEML) is an investment trust that aims to achieve long-term capital growth from an actively managed portfolio made up primarily of securities and financial instruments providing exposure to emerging markets companies, both listed and unlisted.
