In November, GQG Partners reported ongoing net outflows across its equity strategies, yet total funds under management still edged up to US$166.1 billion, supported in part by portfolio moves such as reducing its stake in JSW Energy. The firm’s public scepticism about artificial intelligence, including a whitepaper questioning OpenAI’s business model, highlights an investment stance that increasingly contrasts with prevailing market enthusiasm for AI-related themes. We’ll now examine how...

We’ll now...

Earlier this month, Neuren Pharmaceuticals disclosed that the FDA’s pre-IND meeting for its NNZ-2591 program was pushed back by one month to late January 2026, citing an administrative delay that could modestly affect the development timeline for hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy and other rare neurological indications. This seemingly short postponement is important because NNZ-2591 is Neuren’s second key asset, already granted orphan drug designation in the US and EU, and any shift in its...

The three and five year total shareholder returns...

We’ll now examine how the...
