"Templeton & Phillips exploited Q1 geopolitical volatility to purchase quality companies at discounted valuations. f."
Templeton & Phillips capitalized on Q1 2026 market volatility driven by the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran and subsequent Strait of Hormuz closure affecting 20% of global oil supply. The managers view geopolitical disruptions as creating investment opportunities unavailable under calmer circumstances. They added to existing positions and initiated new holdings including Canadian National Railway, positioned to benefit from LNG supply shifts as Iran's attack on Qatar's facility destroyed 14% of Middle Eastern LNG capacity. The firm also purchased e.l.f. Beauty following a 34% selloff, attracted by its 6.2% free cash flow yield and positioning for trade-down consumer behavior in a K-shaped economy. Small-cap stocks present particular value with Russell 2000 and S&P 600 trading at 6.6x and 4.2x cash flow versus S&P 500 at 16.5x, representing one of the widest valuation gaps in 26 years. The managers maintain their disciplined approach of purchasing quality long-term fundamentals during periods of fear and volatility.
