"Crescat is positioning for a multi-year commodities boom fueled by favorable US national security policies and structural undersupply, while aggressively hedging against an imminent bursting of the historic AI-led technology bubble."
Executive Summary
Crescat Capital reports outstanding performance through June 30, 2025, with all five of its hedge funds ranking in the top 10 among 1,151 funds in the Preqin database. Performance has been strongly driven by their activist metals theme and timely megacap tech shorts. The managers argue that the US is currently experiencing one of its largest-ever equity bubbles, driven by unsustainable AI euphoria. Conversely, they view the metals and mining sector as deeply undervalued, accounting for a historic low percentage of global equities. Crescat is highly optimistic about a multi-year secular bull market in domestic mining, heavily supported by new federal policy changes (including permitting fast-tracking, national energy emergency declarations, and DoD direct equity investments). The firm is actively investing in exploration-stage mining companies and hedging overall portfolio risk via tactical put options.
