"Spheria underperformed in Q2 2026 as AI narrative dominance and extreme market concentration penalized valuation discipline. SharkNinja's innovation-driven consumer strength offset Santos's oil price weakness."
The Spheria Global Opportunities Fund returned 4.7% in June 2026, underperforming its benchmark by 0.8% as market leadership narrowed dramatically around AI-related themes. The fund's 5.7% quarterly return lagged the benchmark's 13.7%, reflecting the hostile environment for valuation-disciplined approaches. SharkNinja led contributors, rising 25% after raising guidance on stronger-than-expected US consumer demand driven by innovation rather than macro tailwinds. Santos detracted, falling 8% as Middle East peace developments removed oil's geopolitical risk premium. The manager views current markets as running on narrative rather than arithmetic, with extreme concentration exemplified by SanDisk's 4,900% rise dominating small-cap index returns. Interest rates have deteriorated, with yields elevated and expectations shifting toward further rises. Gold's prior enthusiasm has faded. The manager refuses to chase unjustified valuations despite recent underperformance, instead focusing on the valuation dislocation in quality businesses with pricing power and strong cash generation. The portfolio holds 30-80 stocks across global small and microcap companies, maintaining patient capital discipline while identifying mispriced opportunities created by thematic concentration.
