"Right Tail Capital experienced a flat 2025 (+0.34% before fees) as it avoided high-flying speculative AI stocks, but the manager remains highly confident in his patient, active strategy of buying deeply mispriced compounders like Alphabet and Constellation Software."
Executive Summary
In the Q4 2025 investor letter, Right Tail Capital's manager, Jeremy Kokemor, reviews a challenging year where the fund returned ~0.34% before fees, lagging the S&P 500 (+17.8%) but tracking closely to the S&P 500 Equal Weight Index (+11.2%). Kokemor attributes this underperformance to extreme market concentration in the 'Magnificent 7' and speculative AI-driven flows. He highlights the fund's contrarian actions, including adding to its major Alphabet (GOOGL) position during a temporary dip to $150, which subsequently finished the year above $300. He remains highly optimistic about portfolio holdings like Constellation Software (CSU.TO), an insurance broker, an insurance underwriter, and a coal royalty business. The manager emphasizes a commitment to tax-loss harvesting, alignment of interests as the fund's largest investor, and a disciplined, long-term quality-compounder strategy.
