Quarterly Fund Manager Review UK equities rose over the quarter, helped by the continuing success of the domestic vaccine rollout and the easing of lockdown restrictions. By the end of June, nearly 45 million people in the UK had received their first vaccine dose, with around 33 million being fully vaccinated. Supportive policy from the Government and positive earnings also benefited UK equities. In June, the UK Government delayed ‘freedom day’ by at least four weeks, due to an uptick in Covid-19 infections caused by the delta variant. The FTSE 100 performed well, returning 5.7%, compared with 4.7% and 5.5% for the FTSE 250 and FTSE 350, respectively. Most sectors saw positive returns, with healthcare, information technology and industrials leading the way. In May, the Bank of England (BoE) raised its 2021 GDP growth forecast to 7.25% and noted that rising inflation numbers were likely temporary. At its June meeting, the BoE kept rates on hold, despite forecasts that inflation could rise above 3% in the coming months. Economic data also pointed to a strong recovery in the UK. Manufacturing purchasing managers’ index data jumped up over the three months, reaching a record high of 65.6 in May. It fell slightly in June to 63.9 but remained in expansionary territory. However, amid the UK Government extending lockdowns until at least the middle of July, data shows that UK retail spending is struggling to recover. Retail sales fell from April to May and June’s consumer confidence print was also flat.
