"ByteTree delivered strong Q2 2025 outperformance in its Soda and Whisky portfolios by avoiding expensive US tech stocks and focusing on UK/European value equities and a risk-weighted blend of Bitcoin and Gold."
In the Q2 2025 investor letter, CEO Charlie Morris reviews ByteTree's model portfolios and macroeconomic trends. Despite an early Q2 market shakeout driven by tariff fears, global markets saw a sharp 'V'-shaped recovery as trade anxieties subsided. A primary driver of asset class performance is the weak US dollar (down 11% YTD) and global money supply growth (G20 supply is at $109T). ByteTree's active strategies achieved significant benchmark outperformance: the low-turnover Soda portfolio rose 7.0% YTD (vs 2.0% for FTSE Private Balanced Index) and the dynamic Whisky portfolio rose 16.2% YTD (vs 9.4% for FTSE 100 Index). Key holdings such as JET2 (+49% in Q2) and German potash producer K+S (+29%) drove performance. Additionally, the risk-weighted BOLD index (blending Bitcoin and Gold) rose 5.7% in Q2 and is up 13.6% YTD. ByteTree remains cautious on high-priced US technology stocks and continues to focus on global value equities.
