2. PERFORMANCE RUNNING QUARTER Koersontwikkeling Navigator, afgelopen 3 maanden De macro-economische indicatoren die de voorbije weken werden gepubliceerd, wezen overwegend op een groeivertraging, zowel in Europa als in Amerika. Met als resultaat dat er vorige maand een uitgesproken beweging plaatsvond van cyclische naar niet-cyclische aandelen: sectoren zoals Automobiel, Staal en Chemie kregen rake klappen, terwijl sectoren zoals Farmacie, Tabak en Electriciteit hogerop gingen. Gemiddeld was wereldwijd sprake van een koersdaling van 1,74%. Navigator kon met een verlies van 1,82% niet beter doen. De recente koersdalingen maken dat de -wereldindex ten opzichte van 12 maanden geleden nu quasi onveranderd is (+0,7%), en dat de groep van representatieve wereldfondsen die we opvolgen licht onder het niveau van een jaar geleden noteert (-1,1%). Navigator boekte over dezelfde periode een winst van 7,6%. Resultaat laatste 12 maanden (30/04//2005, euro) Results last 12 months (30/04/2005, euro) : + 7.6% : + 0.7% : + 0.9% ING Invest : - 0.9% : - 1.4% : - 1.5% Fortis : - 2.2%. 8% 6% 4% 2% versus INDEX Average Funds (*) Most macro-economic indicators have been pointing towards slowing growth in Europe and North-America these last few weeks. This has resulted in a distinct shift from cyclical to non-cyclical stocks: sectors such as Automobiles, Steel and Chemicals got hit rather bad, while sectors such as Pharmacy, Tabacco and Electricity went up. On average, stocks wordwide lost 1,74% in April. Navigator did not succeed in outperforming the index (-1,82%). Recent setbacks have now left the virtually unchanged over the last 12 months (+0.7%), while the group of large global equity funds we cover lost 1,1% on average. Over the same period, Navigator gained 7,6%. 0% -2% -4% 31/01/2005 28/02/2005 31/03/2005

The three most overweighted sectors are now Insurance, Engineering and Chemicals. The most underweighted sectors are Pharmacy, Hardware and Media. We have also increased our weighting of Continental Europe at the expense of positions in Japan and the rest of Asia.
