| TICKER | COMMENTARY |
|---|---|
| 005930.KS | Samsung Electronics was the top contributor during the quarter. The South Korea-headquartered tech company's stock price rose as earnings staged a sharp recovery due to strength in its core semiconductor business. We recently met with the company in South Korea and were reassured by its confidence in its High Bandwidth Memory product lineup, which has continued to improve under new management. We continue to believe Samsung is one of the world's leading semiconductor companies with a long runway for future growth. |
| BABA | Alibaba Group was the top detractor during the quarter. The China-headquartered technology conglomerate's stock price declined as it reported mixed results. The core E-commerce business continues to perform well, and Cloud revenue growth is accelerating. However, the company's earnings were negatively impacted due to significant spending on subsidies to grow their Quick Commerce business, in our opinion. We believe losses from Quick Commerce will be reduced over time and continue to believe the company is well-positioned for long-term growth, having been one of the early investors in Chinese AI. Over time, we think it can leverage its advanced capabilities and leading market position to unlock further value. |
| CHTR | Charter Communications Cl A was listed among the top detractors for the quarter. |
| CNHI | CNH Industrial was listed among the top detractors for the quarter. |
| DSV.CO | DSV was listed among the top contributors for the quarter. |
| GM | General Motors was listed as a final sale during the quarter. |
| IQV | IQVIA Holdings was listed among the top contributors for the quarter. |
| IT | Gartner is a global leader in research services, with a long history of delivering valuable insights and data to business and technology leaders. In our view, the company has the best brand in IT research, supported by its scale and a compelling customer value proposition. These advantages have driven a long history of strong organic growth and robust free-cash-flow conversion. The stock price has declined meaningfully from recent highs due to investor concerns surrounding AI-related disruption. We believe these concerns are overstated. In our view, Gartner is well-positioned to reaccelerate organic growth due to continued high customer engagement and the large opportunity to sell to new and existing customers. We took advantage of the opportunity to buy shares in this well-managed company at a bargain price. |
| MBG.DE | Mercedes-Benz Group was listed as a final sale during the quarter. |
| MDLZ | Mondelēz International is a global snacking powerhouse with leading market share positions in crackers, cookies and chocolate. The brand portfolio houses iconic names like Cadbury, Milka, Toblerone, Oreo and Ritz. Mondelēz possesses a unique global footprint that over-indexes to snacking occasions. Snacking is an advantaged category that benefits from robust pricing power, low private label competition and rising per capita consumption. We believe these attributes will help Mondelēz sustain industry-leading growth. A rapid rise in commodity costs has temporarily depressed margins, masking the company's true earnings power. We believe Mondelēz's strong pricing power and commodity relief will help improve margins. The short-term fears surrounding commodity inflation allowed us to purchase shares at a discounted valuation relative to history, peers and the broader market. |
