"City Different Investments capped an exceptional 2024 with global equity strategy returns exceeding 46%, vastly outperforming benchmarks. Though warning of a near-term performance reset for 2025, the managers remain highly optimistic about bottom-up secular opportunities in nuclear energy and digital consumer platforms."
City Different Investments' global equity strategies delivered exceptional results in 2024, with Focused Global returning +49.03% and Global Equity returning +46.17%, compared to the MSCI ACWI benchmark of +17.49%. The performance was driven by key positions like Talen Energy (surging >200% on nuclear tailwinds) and American Coastal Insurance Corp. Some energy and materials positions like Tidewater and Cameco underperformed, but the team maintains a constructive long-term view. The managers remain highly optimistic about secular opportunities in the global energy transition and tech-enabled consumer discretionary spaces (e.g., Mercado Libre). However, they recommend that investors temper near-term expectations for 2025 following a period of strong, concentrated market gains.
