"SaltLight marks its 10th anniversary by applying its Expected Value framework to the AI landscape, shifting capital from mega-cap hyperscalers to NVIDIA, while capitalizing on South African telecom mispricings via the Cell C IPO."
Executive Summary
SaltLight Capital reflections on its tenth anniversary, emphasizing lessons learned from a decade of investing—shifting from rigid outcome predictions to an 'opportunity maximalist' expected value approach. The letter highlights three key paradoxes in the AI epoch: contradictory supply-chain signals, skepticism over NVIDIA's revenue forecasts despite massive sell-side upgrades, and the harsh de-rating of SaaS companies on AI fears despite unclear near-term AI ROI. Consequently, SaltLight took profits in Amazon and Google, increased its NVIDIA position, and remains constructive on SaaS survivors. Finally, the manager discusses their direct participation in the Cell C JSE listing through Blue Label Unlimited, viewing it as a highly attractive, mispriced ~19% free-cash-flow yield setup.
