"The JDP Survivor & Thriver Fund gained 12.8% in Q3 2025, driven by its 25% China allocation and Tesla. Manager Jeremy Deal remains highly constructive, arguing that historically high levels of investor pessimism represent a prime buying opportunity."
Executive Summary
In Q3 2025, the JDP Survivor & Thriver Fund returned 12.8% net, outperforming the S&P 500's 8.1%. Performance was driven by Tesla and the fund's 25% China allocation (including CATL, Alibaba, and Tencent), which are benefiting from corporate restructurings and national self-sufficiency goals. Detractors included Caesars Entertainment (which the manager views as significantly undervalued) and Spotify (which is undergoing a planned CEO transition to co-CEOs in 2026). The letter highlights that falling AI compute costs are lowering barriers to entry for smaller firms. Finally, using the Daily News Economic Sentiment Index (DNSI), the manager argues that current extreme economic pessimism is historically a strong buy signal for equities, especially in growth and cyclically sensitive sectors.
