Quick Take

"Finding mispriced quality businesses dismissed by filter bubbles. Key winners included Alphabet, Atlassian, and Nvidia."

Executive Summary

Ghosh Capital returned 11.8% in Q4 versus 2.3% for the S&P 500, driven by concentrated positions in quality compounders that were temporarily dislocated. The manager employs a dual strategy: maintaining 50-60% in stable compounders for a solid base while actively trading the remaining 40-50% in high-growth opportunities. Key contributors included Alphabet, Atlassian, Kneat, Braze, and Nvidia. The core investment philosophy centers on betting against polarization, where market filter bubbles create mispricing opportunities in excellent businesses. Examples include Alphabet being dismissed due to AI concerns despite decades of research leadership, Atlassian being doubted on cloud transition despite perfect GenAI use cases, and Adobe being viewed as an AI loser while creators spend more time in their tools. The manager shifted from extreme concentration (100% Alphabet in March) to broader diversification with 20 positions as valuations normalized. Looking ahead, the manager expects 2025 to bring wild swings between optimism and pessimism, creating dislocation opportunities for concentrated bets.
