Quick Take
"PM Capital's Global Companies Fund rose 10% in Q3 2025, outperforming markets through disciplined value investing in undervalued cyclicals. Strong contributions from gold miners benefiting from record prices and copper producers amid supply disruptions."
Executive Summary
PM Capital delivered strong performance in Q3 2025, with the Global Companies Fund rising 10% versus the MSCI World's 6% gain. The fund's outperformance was driven by disciplined stock selection and exposure to undervalued cyclical sectors, particularly commodities. Gold positions benefited from a 17% price rise to record highs, with Newmont gaining 45% and Northern Star up 26%. Copper holdings including Teck Resources and Grupo Mexico also contributed strongly, supported by supply disruptions that shifted market expectations from surplus to deficit. European banking positions delivered robust returns, with Caixabank rising 22% despite trading below 11 times earnings. The fund completed several successful exits, including Spectris after KKR's takeover and Airbus at roughly double the entry price. Portfolio positioning remains differentiated from broader markets, focused on areas with valuation support. The 40-year veteran manager emphasizes the importance of investing differently, understanding cycles, and maintaining discipline around valuation as key drivers of long-term wealth creation.
