"The fund underperformed its benchmark in Q3 2025 due to short-term margin and macro anxieties in key holdings, but the managers remain highly confident and kept portfolio turnover at zero."
During Q3 2025, the fund experienced modest absolute gains but underperformed its benchmark due to near-term margin pressure on MercadoLibre and regulatory tariff concerns affecting Adyen. These issues are assessed by managers as temporary headwinds that build long-term value. On the upside, Shopify, TSMC, and ASML performed strongly, driven by robust tech ecosystems and AI-related hardware demand. Reflecting their long-term focus, the managers initiated no new purchases or sales during the quarter.
