Digest Analysis
Quick Take
"RAM returned 6.11% in 2Q25 and has actively deployed defensive cash into high-conviction SMID value opportunities, anticipating a major market rotation away from large-cap tech."
Executive Summary
During 2Q25, the RAM Smid composite returned 6.11%, slightly trailing its Russell 2500 Value benchmark which rose 7.29%. On a YTD basis, the fund returned -1.29%. The manager remains highly optimistic about the SMID-cap value sector, noting structural neglect that has left many high-quality companies severely undervalued. To capitalize on this, RAM reduced its cash buffer from 9.3% to 5.35% and increased concentration in top ideas. Key portfolio moves included adding to Lakeland Industries (LAKE) and Orthofix Medical (OFIX) on share price weakness, while Ducommun (DCO) was the quarter's standout performer, rising over 42%.
