Quick Take
"RAM's SMID composite gained 10.70% in Q3, outperforming the benchmark. The manager expects a massive, liquidity-driven stampede into small and SMID caps fueled by Fed rate cuts and cyclical industrial recoveries."
Executive Summary
Rewey Asset Management's RAM Smid composite returned 10.70% in 3Q25, outperforming the Russell 2500 Value Total Return index (+8.17%). On a YTD basis, both gained 9.29%. The manager highlights massive downward jobs revisions by the BLS as proof of underlying economic weakness, which has forced the Fed to commence a rate-cutting cycle. This weakness is coupled with companies cutting labor to fund AI initiatives. However, 'green shoots' are appearing in cyclical capital-equipment sectors, suggesting a nascent economic inflection. RAM maintains a bullish stance on SMID value, driven by attractive valuations, low debt (eight holdings with net cash, eight with low leverage), and the potential for a massive liquidity flow from large-caps. Key stock commentaries cover top-performer Varex Imaging (VREX), weakest-performer Kyndryl (KD), and Ultra Clean Holdings (UCTT), which the manager is actively buying based on structural recovery and internal cost-cutting efforts.
