Dynamic Top Pick List Update February 2026: Removing ASMi; Adding UCB

After today's changes (ASMi out, UCB in), we maintain a balanced approach in our Dynamic Top Pick List, with a particular emphasis on value stocks that have been overlooked. Our defensive holdings are overweight, including real estate, which stands to benefit from lower interest rates. We remove ASMi from our Dynamic Top Pick List as the recent share price performance has driven the valuation meaningfully ahead of fundamentals. Since early December, FY27 diluted EPS expectations have risen by a...

Ageas/Shaking shackles, coming together/BUY

Moving away from dependence on Asian earnings (now c.30%), while carefully managing its M&A path, we believe AGEAS is well positioned to see an earnings acceleration in the coming years. China upstreams are coming through, while the share price of its Chinese partner CTIH has doubled in 12 months.
