"VG1 returned a strong 13.2% in Q3 2025, driven by gold and semiconductors. The fund is now taking profits in tech and actively redeploying capital into depressed European value opportunities and UK housing."
VG1 Global Investments returned 13.2% for the September 2025 quarter, outperforming global benchmarks. Key contributors included surging gold equities (up 40-45%) and AI-linked semiconductor positions (TSMC, SK Hynix, Samsung). To manage risk, the team trimmed semiconductor holdings on valuation concerns and reduced exposure to mega-cap tech (notably Meta), while maintaining Amazon as a core holding. Short positions like Brinker International contributed positively as momentum faded. Looking forward, the fund is shifting attention to Europe, researching cyclical value plays, 'AI-labelled losers', and depressed UK housing opportunities.
