Artisan Developing World Fund underperforms in Q1 2026. The fund declined 17.34% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, significantly trailing the MSCI Emerging Markets Index which fell just 0.17%. Despite broader market headwinds, the portfolio benefited from positions in ARM Holdings, Kingsoft Cloud, Coca-Cola, and Netflix. Meanwhile, China's trade surplus surged to a record 213.6 billion dollars in the first two months of 2026, driven by strong export demand and currency depreciation. The fund managers maintain an AI-forward investment strategy designed to capitalize on artificial intelligence proliferation while adhering to core investment principles. Anthropic's achievement of over 30 billion dollars in annualized revenue and new agentic AI tools underscore the sector's continued momentum.
