"Platinum is actively hedging against a potential US market correction using shorts and cash, while selectively deploying capital into undervalued Korean stocks and bottoming analog semiconductors."
Platinum Asset Management's June 2025 quarterly report highlights a cautious outlook toward US equity markets, warning of an elevated risk of a crisis driven by demanding tech valuations, tariff policies, and rising federal debt. Lead Portfolio Manager Ted Alexander notes that the fund has raised cash and maintained protective short positions to hedge against these systemic risks. Conversely, the fund is highly optimistic about South Korean equities, pointing to the government's 'Value-Up' governance reforms as a catalyst to unlock value in undervalued Korean conglomerates (chaebols). In portfolio positioning, the managers trimmed software holdings like SAP and PTC to fund analog and metrology semiconductor purchases (KLA, Microchip, Texas Instruments). The report also features a detailed analysis of 'agentic AI' and its potential to disintermediate Apple's hardware and software toll road.
