Quick Take
"Ophir's +31.8% Global Opportunities Fund return came from pure stock picking across twenty-one winners, not AI exposure. Market breadth finally arrived with small caps outperforming mega caps."
Executive Summary
Ophir delivered exceptional performance in FY2026, with the Global Opportunities Fund returning +31.8% net of fees versus its benchmark's +16.0%, driven almost entirely by stock selection rather than sector or geographic allocation. Twenty-one stocks contributed meaningfully to returns, with the largest single contributor adding just 5.3%, demonstrating a repeatable, diversified approach. The long-awaited arrival of market breadth finally materialized, with small caps outperforming mega caps as returns spread beyond the Magnificent 7. The Russell 2000 rose +3.7% in June while the S&P 500 fell -1.0%. Within AI, returns varied dramatically by stack layer: semiconductors and energy infrastructure soared while software applications fell sharply on disruption fears. Ophir maintains roughly index weight in AI, avoiding directional bets on bubble risk. Looking forward, the firm expects breadth to persist supported by falling inflation, ongoing Fed easing effects, tax cuts, and a resilient consumer. The Australian High Conviction Fund struggled with a -4.9% return, hurt by materials sector underweight and software overexposure, which management is actively addressing.
