Quick Take
"Symmetry reports a strong 15.6% YTD return while shifting defensively to build cash reserves. Key core positions like CTT and JDC Group continue to show stellar underlying performance and structural growth."
Executive Summary
Symmetry Invest delivered a robust 15.6% YTD return, outperforming the MSCI EU Small Cap index (10.4%). The newsletter details the manager's weekly schedule and explores 'The 5 Sources of Wealth' by Sahil Bloom, emphasizing time optimization and avoiding status symbols. In the portfolio, Symmetry moved defensively over the summer by trimming gross/net exposure. Key movements include rebalancing out of GiG Software back into Gentoo Media, trimming overvalued positions in Protector, and locking in gains on Admiral. The fund maintains strong conviction in its largest holding, CTT (Correios de Portugal), aiming for a 2027 fair value of EUR 20, and JDC Group, following its promising acquisition of FMK Group.
