Although 2015 has been touted as the year of the stock picker, it would seem from the performance rankings that much of the success in the first quarter has been heavily influenced by geography and large macro swings.
JP Morgan Japan Fund
The JP Morgan Japan Fund, is one of four Japanese equity funds in the top ten, the other three are the Lindsell Train Japanese Equity Fund and Aberdeen Global Japanese Smaller Companies Fund, in sixth and seventh place respectively, with the Henderson Japan Capital Growth Fund in tenth place.
