"Orbis expects a long-term reversal in US equity outperformance and is positioning the fund in deeply undervalued, idiosyncratic global opportunities like biotech (Genmab, Icon) and entertainment (IMAX)."
Executive Summary
In its quarterly commentary, Orbis International Equity Strategy reports a positive year driven by idiosyncratic holdings like Nebius, Irish banks, Prudential, and Jardine Matheson. The manager highlights a potentially reversing macroeconomic trend where US outperformance may end, making non-US equities highly attractive. The portfolio is currently capitalizing on severe market dislocations in the biotech sector (such as largest holding Genmab and drug-trial leader Icon) and the global entertainment industry (specifically IMAX, which is benefiting from scarce screen capacity and a resurgence in local language blockbusters). Orbis remains focused on bottom-up stock selection to capture these valuation discrepancies.
