"Moerus Worldwide Value Fund returned +4.82% in Q4 (+40.36% YTD), driven by a recovery in unloved value holdings. The manager continues to leverage market volatility to buy bargain-priced assets with strong asymmetric upside."
In Q4 2025, the Moerus Worldwide Value Fund (Institutional Class) returned +4.82%, outperforming the MSCI ACWI (+3.29%) but slightly lagging the MSCI ACWI ex USA (+5.05%). For the full-year 2025, the fund generated a strong return of +40.36%. Performance was driven by deeply out-of-favor value positions that underwent substantial sentiment and fundamental recoveries, including Valterra Platinum, Midland Holdings, and LATAM Airlines Group. Natura Cosméticos was the primary detractor due to cyclical weakness in Brazil. The manager re-emphasizes the concept of 'Price Risk,' highlighting extreme valuation bifurcation in global markets and viewing short-term macro/geopolitical volatility as a valuable source of bargains.
