"Praetorian Capital Fund returned 5.70% net in Q3 2025 (12.16% YTD). PM Harris Kupperman remains highly defensive and bearish on global markets, building high liquidity and safe-haven hedges to prepare for an inevitable asset and credit market collapse."
During Q3 2025, Praetorian Capital Fund appreciated by 5.70% net (12.16% YTD). Lead PM Harris Kupperman contrasts his defensive 'hard way' of investing (seeking profits and cash flows) with the euphoric 'easy way' (unprofitable AI and concept stocks). Kupperman continues to warn of global economic deceleration and an impending collapse in the AI, Private Equity, Venture Capital, and Private Credit markets. To manage these structural risks, Praetorian has reduced portfolio exposure, preserved cash liquidity, and established a large tactical long position in US Treasury futures. Core long equity holdings remain concentrated in profitable growing names like Sprott, St. Joe, and exchange platforms (croupiers), as well as cheap Emerging Markets assets positioned to benefit from a weaker US Dollar.
