Global equities were decimated in a very volatile market. A cocktail of economic, monetary and earnings uncertainty weighted on global markets. This resulted in the worst December return for the S&P since 1930s, while global markets also suffered. Real estate stocks outperformed global equities again last month (+2.3%), resulting in an outperformance of 1.83% YTD. The VIX moved up again from 18 to 25, having reached an intra-month high at 36, close to this year’s high at 37. Equity markets in both DM and EM dropped in December with the broader S&P500 down 10%, while tech stocks moved down in tandem with the Nasdaq down 10.5%.

Sustainability Themed Fund |
The fund can engage in currency hedging transactions.
The fund does not distribute dividend. The income earned by the fund is reflected in its share price. The fund's entire result is thus reflected in its share price development.
For Robeco Property Equities, we combine fundamental analysis with proprietary Robeco quantitative models and use the sustainability data from RobecoSAM when available for our universe. In our fundamental analysis and company engagement we focus on environmental issues. These factors are material, as decrease of energy use has a direct effect on the bottom line and a better sustainability profile increases attractiveness for tenants, in both the office and retail real-estate sectors.
Robeco Property Equities invests globally in leading companies in the property sector combining a sound business model, solid growth prospects and a reasonable valuation. Key to the investment process is identification of strong global trends. Within these trends the bottom-up stock selection is driven by the combination of thorough fundamental analysis and quantitative model outcomes. In its analysis the fund does not apply regional timing, focus is on fitness to the growth trends, quality of assets, management teams and balance sheets. Quantitative models are used to screen stocks with high scores on a set of multiple factors that have proven to drive outperformance in the short and medium term. The fund invests in 50 to 70 companies.
Risk management is fully integrated in the investment process to ensure that positions always meet predefined guidelines.
With a 4% plus dividend yield, the global real estate sector remains an attractive asset category for income-oriented investors. In developed markets, fundamentals are still strong, with FY2019-FYE2021 earnings growth rates in the mid-single digits. As payout ratios are upped, we expect dividends to rise accordingly. Overall leverage for the listed sector is moderate with an average Net Debt to Enterprise Value of sub 30% and Net Debt/EBITDA of around 6.0x. We remain neutral on the sector's valuation. Real estate stocks currently trade at a high single-digit discount to their net asset values. On a relative P/E basis, real estate equities trade above the historical average of 0.9x. The sector's performance will remain vulnerable to (short-term) interest rate movements. Globally, cap rate spreads to local 10-year bond yields are still above historical averages. In the US, implied cap rate spreads to investment grade yields are below 100 bps versus a historical average of 160 bps. For the foreseeable future, we expect a healthy supply of new commercial real estate and as such physical depletion could cause a shortage of high grade real estate as global GDP growth improves.
