The Frank Value Fund returned 13.60% year-to-date through Q2 2026, underperforming the Russell Midcap Value Index return of 17.58% but significantly outperforming since the strategy's 2022 inception with an 83.20% total return versus 45.04% for the benchmark. The fund deliberately avoids the AI Big 10 concentration that comprises 41% of the S&P 500, viewing current market conditions as comparable to the 2000 tech bubble when similar concentration preceded a lost decade. Instead, the manager retained large positions in consumer staples like Hershey's and Post Holdings while adding healthcare and defense contractors during the quarter. These undervalued businesses trade at 10x earnings or less and generate predictable free cash flow, enabling management teams to return over 10% of capital annually through buybacks. The 66% performance differential between technology and consumer staples mirrors the 1999-2000 peak, creating opportunity as low valuations accelerate earnings per share growth. The manager views this as a simpler bet than underwriting complex AI infrastructure unknowns, requiring only that people continue enjoying chocolate, maintaining health, and that government military spending persists. While acknowledging cracks appearing in momentum stocks, the manager expects maximum pain for undisciplined technology investors before a full rotation occurs.
The Frank Value Fund pursues catalyst-unlocking value investing in mid-cap companies trading at 10x earnings or less, deliberately avoiding the concentrated AI Big 10 positions that comprise 41% of the S&P 500 at valuations comparable to historical bubble peaks. The fund maintains large positions in consumer staples, healthcare, and defense contractors where depressed valuations enable management teams to return over 10% of capital annually through buybacks, accelerating earnings per share growth and creating a compelling risk-reward compared to the complex unknowns embedded in elevated technology valuations.
The manager believes the market is in a prolonged topping process where undisciplined technology investors will be rewarded for dip-buying behavior until the last dollar has been allocated, inflicting maximum pain. However, value-releasing catalysts in the Frank Value Fund portfolio continue to unlock returns for shareholders. The manager expects a return to average performance between technology and consumer staples would provide significant benefits, though does not predict the timing of such a rotation. The tone is cautiously optimistic for value strategies while remaining bearish on technology concentration.

| HSY | Fabulous companies with long-term competitive advantages like Hershey's and Post Holdings continue to produce predictable free cash flow as their stock prices languish. Chocolate chips lack the excitement of computer chips, but investors are getting far more cash from the former. Rather than underwriting complex unknowns like margins on DRAM in 2030, we merely need people to continue to enjoy Hershey Bars and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, take care of their health, and for the US government to continue military spending. |
