European and Japanese equities trade around 15x forward earnings, roughly 30% discount to US multiples. Latin America trades at mere 10x forward earnings with 5%+ dividend yield. Artificial intelligence investments show artificial profit today due to massive capex creating revenue for picks-and-shovels companies while depreciation lags cash expenses. The AI complex is moving toward commoditization with intense competition evident across cloud providers, compute, and models themselves. Circular investments within the AI ecosystem are reminiscent of dotcom-era vendor financing. American institutional excellence is under unprecedented attack including rule of law, independent judiciary, competent bureaucracy, and fiscal prudence. The current administration has conducted mass purges of government watchdogs, attacked Federal Reserve independence, and systematically undermined the norms that define proper federal government role. Markets are experiencing extreme speculation with vibe investing replacing fundamental analysis. Assets are priced on fantastical stories rather than cash flows, with leveraged ETFs, retail options trading, and story stocks reaching bubble-like levels. This madness can only end in disaster. High-quality international businesses trade at fractions of US multiples, with the manager positioning clients to take advantage of this divergence.

Hyperscaler CapEx spending has reached historically high proportions of revenues and operating cash flows. The most attractive long-term AI opportunities reside with businesses building long-term value rather than companies exposed to cyclical swings. 2025 was characterized by extreme momentum dynamics with capital flowing into immediate winners while perceived losers saw unprecedented pressure. Market leadership concentrated in lower-quality, speculative, and cyclically sensitive stocks. The momentum trade has been exceptionally profitable short-term but timing the inevitable reversal remains challenging.

Current large language models suffer from hallucinations but are likely just an opening phase. If AI advances in biotechnology, materials, and energy, the future could be very interesting. The U.S. stock market has been in bubble territory for a prolonged period, defined as a two-standard deviation divergence above long-term real price trend. Unlike every bubble before it, this one has yet to fully deflate despite classic signs of a historic bubble top. Hyperscalers spent nearly $300 billion on capital expenditures in 2025, with AI investment accounting for 1.3% of U.S. GDP. Cumulative spending on U.S. data centers is estimated to reach $3-5 trillion by 2029-2030, representing massive overcommitment of capital. Nvidia is currently the world's most valuable company, exceeding the entire Japanese stock market. The AI boom has created unprecedented demand for chips, with companies stretching depreciation schedules despite ongoing technological progress that should shorten useful chip lives. There has been a surge in aggressive speculative behavior with commission-free trading, plentiful margin loans, and leveraged ETFs. Zero-day options now make up over 60% of all S&P 500 options, alongside the GameStop meme stock craze and cryptocurrency rise. By every historically effective valuation metric, U.S. equities are extremely overpriced. The CAPE of 40 is above any level seen outside the internet bubble peak, with the market cap to GDP ratio at all-time highs and record proportions trading at over 10 times sales. | HUBS |

FANUC exemplifies this trend as a global leader in factory robots and CNC systems that support re-shoring and friend-shoring while maintaining productivity. The company's technology underpins manufacturing across automotive, electronics, semiconductors, and precision machinery with systems that remain in place for decades. Materials have re-emerged as strategically important rather than purely cyclical as supply chains are re-engineered and infrastructure investment accelerates. Holdings like Pan American Silver and Southern Copper provide exposure to precious metals and copper demand driven by electrification, grid expansion, electric vehicles, and data-centre infrastructure. Supply growth remains constrained by long development timelines while demand continues rising. AI-related stocks remained a key market driver with companies most directly tied to AI infrastructure and monetization delivering the strongest results. The Magnificent Seven continued to dominate markets, accounting for roughly half of the S&P 500's total return. Capital investment remained elevated with spending concentrated in data centres, semiconductors, energy infrastructure, and automation. Governments and corporations are prioritizing re-shoring and friend-shoring, placing greater emphasis on supply-chain resilience across technology, manufacturing, energy infrastructure, and critical minerals. Rather than reversing globalization, supply chains are being re-engineered around strategic alignment and political reliability. This shift is influencing how and where capital is deployed globally. The transition toward renewable energy and electrification continues to drive investment in grid expansion, energy storage, and power infrastructure. Holdings like GE Vernova benefit from rising power and infrastructure demands tied to AI and electrification. Energy has become a strategic asset to fuel the growth of AI and support industrial competitiveness through low, stable energy costs. | View | |

Management guided for 30% revenue growth in 2026 and raised 5-year CAGR guidance to 25%. The fund also initiated a position in a leading South Korean memory chip manufacturer benefiting from tight supply conditions. Tencent demonstrated strong execution with improved monetization strategies after management changes in 2024. Domestic games revenue became a strong driver of overall growth, supported by the company's strong moat through WeChat's 1.4 billion users and major gaming titles like Honour of Kings and PUBG Mobile. Apollo and KKR underperformed despite strong underlying fundamentals, with AUM and fee-related earnings growing 15-24% due to industry headwinds around private equity fundraising and private credit concerns. The fund added to positions at attractive valuations, viewing the volatility as opportunity in businesses positioned for long-term growth. Marco Polo Marine transformed from a cyclical shipyard business to a specialized offshore wind vessel provider, securing multi-year service agreements and building sophisticated vessels for the growing Asian offshore wind market. The company partnered with European designers and global players like Vestas and Siemens Gamesa. DBS Bank was added as a new core holding, recognized for converting scale and technology into structural competitive advantages. The bank achieved 18% ROE through growing fee-based businesses like wealth management, reduced cyclicality, and strong capital allocation with progressive dividends and share repurchases. The fund profitably traded a Malaysian gold miner, capitalizing on gold prices rising faster than miners' all-in sustaining costs, creating attractive margin expansion opportunities and potential valuation re-rating if price strength persists. Profitable trades in two Indonesian crude palm oil producers were driven by Indonesia's biodiesel blending mandate increase from B30 to B40, tightening export availability while supply response remained constrained by aging plantation profiles and replanting limitations. Beyond direct AI investments, the fund seeks second-order beneficiaries including data center construction, electrical infrastructure, and semiconductor supply chain opportunities where demand is visible but valuations remain more palatable than pure AI names. | 5LY SI KKR APO TSM |

However, they express concern that markets have already discounted much future AI-driven growth, with $9-$12 trillion of post-2022 market cap gains unexplained by fundamentals. The aggressive AI spending has materially slowed free cash flow and earnings growth for hyperscalers. The strategy focuses heavily on dividend-paying stocks, with a large dividend contribution of 4.1% and total yield of 7.2% for the year. The manager notes that defensive and dividend-oriented sectors are now at multi-decade lows in index weight and investor interest, trading at unusually attractive relative valuations. They believe equity income is becoming increasingly competitive as money market yields decline from their peaks. The manager emphasizes that Value stocks are positioned for outperformance, noting the Growth-to-Value valuation spread is near historical extremes at nearly 100% premium versus the long-term average of 57%. They highlight extreme underweight positioning, elevated valuations in growth, and historically favorable mean-reversion dynamics as creating a compelling setup for value stocks to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns. The Federal Reserve cut rates twice in Q4 to the current range of 3.50% to 3.75%, following a September cut. The manager views the Fed's easing cycle positively for high-dividend stocks, as declining short-term rates should make equity dividend yields increasingly attractive compared to money market funds. They note nearly $8 trillion is currently invested in money market funds with yields falling from peaks above 5% to 3.7%. The manager expresses concern about elevated risk appetite and speculative excess, noting that leveraged ETFs now represent roughly 1% of total ETF assets but account for over 12% of trading volume. They highlight that retail investors now account for roughly 25% of total trading volume, more than twice the long-term average, which has historically served as a signpost of market excess and potential tops. | NSC JPM KVUE UNP UNH QCOM |

The manager believes the current AI investment cycle is different from the dot.com bubble because we don't have enough compute capacity to meet today's needs, driven by three mega-trends: transition from CPU to GPU dominated data centers, replacement of recommender systems with AI-driven systems, and future robotics and digital agents. Companies are spending hundreds of billions of dollars per year to build massive data centers capable of delivering enormous compute power. The infrastructure buildout of massive amounts of compute power needed to drive the next generation of AI applications is viewed as the most secure part of the AI food chain. The manager maintains continued investment in Nvidia and ASML and has made a relatively new investment in Micron, viewing the infrastructure buildout as the most secure part of the AI food chain. GPU dominated servers are replacing CPU servers for cheaper running of traditional workloads. The enterprise software sector faces heightened uncertainty due to the threat of AI disintermediation. The manager consolidated investments into platform companies Service Now and Salesforce while exiting Adobe, believing platforms that connect workflows across organizations are less at risk than best-of-breed apps. 2025 saw the global trade order re-written through executive orders and tweets, with tariffs being a central topic. The manager expects tariffs could remain a central topic in early 2026 depending on upcoming Supreme Court rulings on the legality of Trump tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. | View | |

The generative AI supercycle has driven extreme market concentration in the magnificent few companies, leaving huge parts of the equity universe ignored. Eli Lilly was a key contributor due to its dominant position in the fast-growing GLP-1 drug market. Third-quarter results were exceptional due to explosive demand for its metabolic franchise with Mounjaro for diabetes and Zepbound for obesity generating more than $10 billion in quarterly sales. Micron Technology continued to provide positive contribution as a semiconductor manufacturer benefiting from the AI boom. DRAM pricing has continued to rise sharply, creating a favorable environment for Micron and enabling improved profitability from rising AI workloads and tight semiconductor supply. The fund initiated a position in Hensoldt, a European defense electronics company, classified as an Accelerator. The investment case is underpinned by strong positioning in sensor solutions and electronic warfare, seeing heightened demand amid increased European defense spending with robust order book and technological edge in radar and optronics. The fund benefited from investors beginning to appreciate companies with more defensive qualities such as relatively reliable revenues.

The landscape is evolving too swiftly to conclude today's favored players will be ultimate winners, with fundamental questions remaining about LLM commoditization and revenue sustainability. The strategy's average holding has grown its dividend at 10% over the last 12 months with similar growth expected in coming years. The fund maintains focus on dividend-paying companies as part of its core investment approach and diversification strategy. The ClearBridge Dividend Strategy trades at a significant discount to the broader market with a P/E ratio of 19.8x versus 24.7x for the S&P 500.

The resource grab phase involves massive data center build-out primarily in the US, creating acute price pressures in power, memory chips, and materials while having limited labor market impact. Global data center capacity build-out is accelerating with majority occurring in the US. The construction creates supply chain pressures for key components like memory chips, generators, and transformers, while requiring minimal labor relative to capital investment. Memory chip supply chains are overwhelmed with companies like SK Hynix sold out until 2027. These supply pressures affect other goods using same inputs, with memory chips representing about 10% of iPhone cost of goods sold. Surging compute demand is hitting power availability constraints in the US, including insufficient peak generation capacity and transmission capacity. Hyperscalers are turning to behind-the-meter solutions like natural gas turbines despite cost disadvantages. | View | |

The early-year AI melt-up reversed sharply in April, exposing speculative excess as story stocks began to lose momentum. ROI discipline and selectivity now define performance, reinforcing a true stock-picker's market. Small caps are breaking multi-year bases with early signs of leadership rotation beneath the surface. Small cap earnings revisions turned positive for the first time in years, reinforcing the durability of market broadening into 2026. Small caps and cyclicals trade at a meaningful discount to large caps, creating attractive opportunities where fundamentals are improving faster than prices. Earnings leadership is broadening across Financials, Industrials, Health Care, and small caps. Small- and mid-cap earnings expectations are inflecting higher after several years of underperformance, narrowing the growth gap versus the largest stocks. Consensus points to more balanced EPS growth across market segments in 2025-26, supporting a healthier and less concentrated earnings backdrop. | View | |

The firm believes quality stocks are undervalued as investors chase speculative opportunities. TransDigm represents a portfolio of aerospace parts with mission-critical, proprietary characteristics and little competition. The aerospace aftermarket benefits from secular growth in air travel and regulatory barriers that create pricing power for parts suppliers. Linde operates in industrial gases with economies of scale advantages and take-or-pay contracts that provide guaranteed income streams. The business benefits from mission-critical applications across diverse industries and expensive transportation costs that create local monopolies.

Jennison plans to execute with fluidity in this rapidly evolving set of opportunities that cross into multiple sectors. The most interesting part of the Fund, with the strongest secular growth profile, seems to be the most controversial in the market and centers on the massive paradigm shift to GenAI. The massive data center buildout is leading to a surge in demand for alternative and traditional energy generation. This trend led Jennison to add GE Vernova to the Fund's Industrials sector for their natural gas turbine, wind, and electrification businesses. Taiwan Semiconductor rose on record profitability as AI demand continues to exceed expectations. Jennison initiated a position in Advanced Micro Devices as the team believes the use of GPUs for agentic AI applications will continue to expand and customers of NVIDIA are looking for second sources. | GEV |

AMD benefited from landmark agreement with OpenAI to supply 6 gigawatts of high-performance graphics chips and broader investor rotation into AI infrastructure. Barrick Mining rose sharply underpinned by fresh wave of investor enthusiasm for gold, with record bullion prices boosting revenue, margin and earnings estimates. Portfolio reduced exposure to gold via exiting Valterra Platinum following rapid price moves. Amazon's AWS business re-accelerated growth to 20% year-on-year, the fastest pace in several years, as the company sees strong demand.

The race is for AGI, with wealth accruing to whoever reaches it first. Big Tech's AI spending accounts for roughly 90% of corporate capex and contributes an estimated half of total U.S. GDP growth in 2025. TSMC represents a durable bottleneck in the infrastructure layer—the point of least slack in the global silicon supply chain. All roads lead to TSMC, with approximately 67% share of global foundry revenue and roughly 90% share of leading-edge nodes. Alphabet's cloud business made meaningful progress with revenue expected to reach approximately $57 billion (+32% YoY), while operating profit is projected to nearly double. Revenue backlog is growing faster than reported revenue, underscoring the persistent supply-demand imbalance. By designing proprietary silicon and committing to capital outlays for data centers on a financial scale attainable by only a handful of nation-states, these firms have constructed a physical moat that is, for all practical purposes, unreplicable. On Holding represents a play on the growing scarcity of the real. As digital marketing becomes commoditized and AI floods the world with generic content, value migrates toward physical community and technical prestige. On is selling membership in a curated, physical ecosystem that AI cannot replicate. | AMRZ HOLN SW NU ONON BRK.B TSM GOOGL |

When amortizing AI capex over the system that will use it, the returns appear massive and under-reported. S&P margins look structurally too low in most forecasts as labor efficiency gains may likely create an upward drift in margin ceilings. Aerospace is cyclically inflecting ahead of a long duration upcycle supported by secular growth of the global middle class. The Aerospace Normalization theme was the largest positive contributor in 2025 with General Electric, Rolls-Royce and Howmet all making meaningful contributions driven by fundamental strength. Power demand creates new secular growth opportunities, with data centers reaching deep into industrial portfolios. Caterpillar's co-located power capability at data centers represents significant revenue upside potential to the Energy & Transportation segment. Analog Devices represents the premium analog compounder as the cycle turns, with best-in-class economics including 70%+ gross margins and 45-50% EBIT targets. The team believes 2Q25 marked the restart of the semiconductor cycle with pricing and margin inflection underway. De-globalization theme involves redirection of capital on post pandemic priorities for security of energy and reliability of supply chains. Companies like Siemens Energy, GE Vernova, Constellation Energy and Vistra are positioned to benefit from this structural shift. Industrial automation represents a key secular trend with companies like Rockwell Automation positioned to benefit from digitization and AI-enabled transformation of enterprise operations. This includes factory automation and process optimization across manufacturing. | GE |

Discovery represents a special situation investment driven by CEO David Zaslav's shift toward shareholder value creation and aggressive debt paydown. The company announced plans to split into two entities and received multiple takeover bids, with Netflix ultimately winning the bidding war. The market fears AI will disrupt vertical market software by eliminating switching costs and seat-based pricing. However, AI agents will likely increase demand for systems of record and control point software rather than replace them, as enterprises need guardrails for non-deterministic AI outputs. Constellation Software and Topicus represent the core thesis of acquiring mission-critical vertical market software businesses with high switching costs, recurring revenue, and defensive moats. These businesses serve niche markets where switching is painful and alternatives offer minimal benefits. The fund employs covered call strategies to generate income and reduce cost basis while building positions. This options-based approach allows for larger position sizing in balance sheet challenged businesses while providing downside protection. HEICO represents an antifragile business model in aftermarket aerospace components that gains market share during economic stress as airlines extend fleet life.

He argues that we cannot be in an AI bubble when defensive stocks trade at higher multiples than leading AI companies. The discussion emphasizes that AI-driven demand is creating structural changes in memory and semiconductor markets. Memory semiconductors are highlighted as no longer being a commodity business driven by PC cycles, but rather a strategic input for AI, cloud infrastructure, and data-intensive workloads. The supply side has consolidated with fewer rational players, higher capital intensity, and better pricing discipline. Micron is positioned to benefit from AI-driven demand and improved industry structure. The manager emphasizes owning high-quality U.S. businesses that compound intrinsic value over time. He argues that obvious, high-quality businesses are not a failure of imagination but recognition of reality, as the modern internet economy rewards scale and dominant positions. Quality businesses can deliver asymmetric returns through duration of dominance. Valuation discipline is emphasized as critical to long-term success, with the manager noting that overpaying can cause long-term returns to go sideways. The portfolio deliberately avoided chasing narrow market leadership at elevated valuations, accepting short-term underperformance to preserve long-term risk-adjusted outcomes. Value creation comes from buying quality businesses at rational prices. | DIS AMD MU |

Current large language models suffer from hallucinations but are likely just an opening phase. If AI advances in biotechnology, materials, and energy, the future could be very interesting. The U.S. stock market has been in bubble territory for a prolonged period, defined as a two-standard deviation divergence above long-term real price trend. Unlike every bubble before it, this one has yet to fully deflate despite classic signs of a historic bubble top. Hyperscalers spent nearly $300 billion on capital expenditures in 2025, with AI investment accounting for 1.3% of U.S. GDP. Cumulative spending on U.S. data centers is estimated to reach $3-5 trillion by 2029-2030, representing massive overcommitment of capital. Nvidia is currently the world's most valuable company, exceeding the entire Japanese stock market. The AI boom has created unprecedented demand for chips, with companies stretching depreciation schedules despite ongoing technological progress that should shorten useful chip lives. There has been a surge in aggressive speculative behavior with commission-free trading, plentiful margin loans, and leveraged ETFs. Zero-day options now make up over 60% of all S&P 500 options, alongside the GameStop meme stock craze and cryptocurrency rise.

The fund views copper as undervalued relative to its role in data centers, electric vehicles, and renewable energy infrastructure, while copper mining stocks trade at traditional commodity multiples despite exposure to revolutionary trends. The letter discusses AI's massive energy requirements for data centers, estimating 500-700 thousand tonnes of copper demand by 2028-2030. FCL sees AI as driving fundamental changes in commodity demand while noting that direct AI investments trade at expensive valuations compared to indirect plays through commodities. Renewable energy systems are highly copper-intensive, requiring much more copper per unit of capacity than fossil fuel generation. Wind turbines need 8 tonnes of copper per MW offshore and 2.5-3 tonnes onshore, while solar requires 2-5 tonnes per MW, driving substantial copper demand growth. FCL revisits their 2017 crypto thesis, highlighting tokenization of real-world assets and prediction markets as the next evolution. They see tokenization enabling 24/7 global trading of traditionally illiquid assets, while prediction markets like Polymarket demonstrate superior forecasting ability compared to traditional polling. Brazilian investors have developed a false belief in risk-free returns through CDI investments due to high interest rates. FCL argues this creates a paradox where avoiding risk actually increases long-term purchasing power risk, as CDI has delivered near-zero returns in USD terms over the past decade. The fund emphasizes valuation disparities between expensive US tech stocks and cheaper alternatives in emerging markets and commodities. They highlight that copper miners trade at traditional multiples despite exposure to AI and energy transition themes, presenting attractive risk-adjusted opportunities. | View | |

AI adoption is proceeding rapidly with productivity gains helping offset wage pressures and containing inflation. The technology is displacing many jobs while reducing business costs, creating an almost ideal environment for stock prices. The capture of Nicolás Maduro represents a dramatic change in U.S. foreign policies under the Monroe-Trump Doctrine. This signals a more assertive approach to countering hostile regimes in the Western Hemisphere, with implications for Cuba, Iran, and China's strategic positioning in Latin America. Venezuela's leadership change may lower global oil prices and benefit energy companies and oilfield service providers. Oil prices are likely to decline further with positive economic consequences globally, boosting real household income and helping reduce inflation measures.

Oracle's December profit warning and data-centre project delays intensified scrutiny of near-term monetisation, marking a turning point that tempered earlier enthusiasm for AI infrastructure and chipmakers. Gold surged above US$4,300 per ounce in October, prompting exposure to be trimmed closer to long-term strategic targets. The metal experienced one of its steepest single-day declines in years on 21 October but subsequently recovered to reach a new high above US$4,500 in December, supported by safe haven demand and central bank purchases. Copper led performance within multi-asset portfolios, advancing 16.57% over the quarter. Following a correction in July 2025 driven by tariff-related volatility, copper stabilised and rebuilt momentum through Q4, underpinned by a structurally tight supply-demand backdrop and disruption risk across key producing regions. Trade tensions stayed elevated despite a truce, with threatened tariff escalation in October giving way to a one-year US-China tariff truce after late-October talks. This eased near-term supply-chain risk but left strategic issues unresolved, with stockpiling activity providing additional support to commodity markets. | LGEU LN |

Gold surged above US$4,300 per ounce in October, then reached new highs above US$4,500 in December. Supported by falling bond yields, rate cut expectations, geopolitical tensions, and central bank purchases. Copper performed well rising 16.57% in Q4, supported by ongoing electrification, infrastructure spend, tight supply due to limited new mine capacity, and stockpiling activity amid tariff uncertainty. Healthcare exposure contributed positively as policy risks receded, valuations looked attractive, and investors rotated toward high-quality, cash-generative businesses with resilient earnings. Trade tensions stayed elevated despite a truce. Threatened tariff escalation in October gave way to a one-year US-China tariff truce after late-October talks, easing near-term supply-chain risk but left strategic issues unresolved. | PCGH LN |

The shelter component slowed from 3.8% in September to 3.0% in November, the lowest reading since August 2021. The CPI report surprised all economists, with none predicting this low of a reading. Lower-income households are reducing discretionary spending while higher-income households maintain resilient demand. Bank of America data shows lower-income households recorded only 0.6% year-over-year spending growth versus 2.6% for higher-income households. Buy-now-pay-later usage rose 9% year-over-year. Aggregate credit card limits have risen to a record $5.3 trillion, a 35% increase over five years. Outstanding credit card balances total $1.2 trillion, up 6% over 12 months. Credit card delinquencies edged higher in the third quarter, coinciding with elevated interest rates at 21%. The Federal Reserve has pivoted toward a more accommodative stance, lowering interest rates and restarting balance sheet expansion. Treasury bill purchases began in December at roughly $40 billion per month. Market expectations price in two rate cuts in 2026 versus Fed projections of only one. | View | |

Eaton provides energy-efficient power management solutions for data centers, representing a multi-year market opportunity despite near-term production bottlenecks and margin concerns from capital spending. Eli Lilly reported strong results fueled by accelerating sales growth for blockbuster GLP-1 weight loss products Mounjaro and Zepbound. The company has promising pipeline drugs including orforglipron and retatrutide, with government pricing agreements potentially expanding market access for Medicare and Medicaid users. Oracle's cloud business has signed several multibillion-dollar contracts leading to large increases in remaining performance obligations. The company remains well positioned to benefit from ongoing AI capacity buildout due to technological advantages and strategic business relationships, despite market concerns about funding and customer concentration.

TSMC continued positive momentum with robust results, beating revenue and margin expectations driven by strong demand for advanced products. The company raised full-year revenue guidance to 35% reflecting explosive growth in AI demand from consumer, enterprise and sovereign AI models. Clean technology economics reached a tipping point with renewables and EVs achieving cost parity, driving record investment of $2 trillion in 2025. Global EV sales reached 20% of new car purchases despite policy uncertainty, with solar attracting $500 billion in investment. 2025 was one of the three hottest years ever recorded with climate-driven disasters causing significant costs.

Capital spending and R&D consume greater share of sales for largest AI providers than drug stocks. Manager reduced exposure to AI-related companies over the last year due to concerns about future return on AI investment. After four decades of declining interest rates and ten years of very low inflation, both rates and inflation have returned to long-term norms. This marks a notable shift in the global investment landscape that has not yet been reflected in most investors' portfolio positioning. As the global labor force ages and need for supply-chain redundancies becomes more acute, companies increasingly seek ways to do more with fewer people. Automation technologies have matured and reached an inflection point, now offering attractive returns on investment across many industries.

The acceleration in Q4 underscores persistent safe-haven demand amid geopolitical tensions, central bank buying, inflation hedging, massive global debts and a favorable macro backdrop with lower real yields on fixed income securities. Silver far outpaced even gold with explosive momentum in the final quarter, delivering a colossal 147.5% gain for the year to $71.54 per ounce. This reflects gold's safe-haven spillover plus strong industrial demand from solar, electronics, EVs, and AI-related applications, chronic supply deficits, and early cycle speculative fervour. The firm's significant allocation to precious metals royalty companies was the primary driver of outperformance in 2025. Precious metals staged historic rallies as hard assets and inflation hedges dominated, providing a powerful tailwind to resource-heavy Canadian indices amid broader global uncertainty. The new Rocklinc Principled Equity Fund focuses on undervalued securities through a concentrated portfolio of 20 or fewer holdings, enabling conviction-driven investments based on deep fundamental analysis. The firm deliberately steers clear of overvalued securities trading at extreme multiples and resists purely speculative investments. Canada leads globally in active ETF adoption, with about 30% of total ETF assets under management being actively managed, compared to just 8% in the US. The firm launched the Rocklinc Principled Equity Fund ETF to tap into this booming market where investor demand and competition among providers are driving rapid growth.

The narrative is evolving from infrastructure spending to productivity results, with markets likely to reward companies that translate AI adoption into real efficiency gains in 2026. Gold rose more than 64% in 2025, marking its strongest annual gain in over four decades. Demand was driven primarily by non-Western central banks and international investors seeking diversification away from US financial assets amid concerns around fiscal discipline and geopolitical risk. Silver surged 142% in 2025, its largest increase since the late 1970s, due to its dual role as a safe haven asset and critical industrial component for AI data centers and solar infrastructure.

Google Cloud processes 1.3 quadrillion AI tokens per month, more than double from just a few quarters ago. Meta has been using AI tools for over a decade to manage their massive network, with their Andromeda machine learning system automatically retrieving and ranking tens of millions of potential ads based on user preferences. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing continues to execute flawlessly on leading-edge node progression and capacity build-out, enabling the AI era by manufacturing nearly every compute accelerator including GPUs. The company's advanced nodes allow accelerator designers greater flexibility to increase performance while limiting power requirements in an increasingly power-constrained compute infrastructure industry. Google Cloud segment revenue and backlog growth accelerated, driven by AI workloads. Amazon's AWS has fostered some of the largest businesses in the world over the past 20 years, with revenue growth accelerating to over 20% as the company deployed almost 4 gigawatts of capacity for AI-workloads over the past 12 months. The manager expresses significant concern about excessive market valuations, noting that more than 30% of US market capitalization now trades above 10x sales, reminiscent of the tech bubble. The crowded AI trade and historically rich valuations are described as haunting prudent investing, with even most non-Magnificent Seven stocks failing to offer bargains. The manager has trafficked in quality stocks for more than 33 years, an approach that has served clients well since 1992 but did not work in 2025.

The manager believes we may be nearing a Barnes & Noble moment where widespread business adoption accelerates, similar to internet adoption after 1995. They maintain strategic positioning in AI infrastructure companies with strong moats. Semiconductor equipment holdings drove strong Q4 performance, benefiting from improving industry outlooks and attractive valuations. The manager reduced underweight in Nvidia while favoring Broadcom's ASIC strategy, expecting custom silicon to gain market share in AI data centers. Following extensive research including a field trip, the manager re-entered Chinese technology and e-commerce through Alibaba and Tencent. They believe the regulatory environment has shifted from crackdown to active support, creating opportunities to buy excellent businesses at compelling valuations despite ongoing geopolitical tensions. Cloud infrastructure remains critical to AI deployment with companies like Alibaba holding 30% of China's cloud market and integrating AI capabilities. The manager sees cloud as essential infrastructure for the AI ecosystem with substantial growth runway as penetration remains below Western markets. The manager added back to Fortinet following 40% underperformance, seeing the company positioned to benefit from secular tailwinds in cybersecurity and vendor consolidation. Strong customer switching costs and network effects support continuous market share gains despite recent volatility. | View | |

He compares the current AI race to a prisoner's dilemma where companies must invest aggressively to avoid being left behind, even at the risk of capital destruction. Private AI companies are raising capital at unprecedented valuations without products or disclosed business plans. The manager highlights how passive investing has reached nearly 65% of US equity assets, contributing to market distortions including reduced liquidity, increased volatility, and further concentration in mega-cap stocks. US equity index funds attracted around $650 billion in 2025 while actively managed funds saw record outflows approaching $1 trillion. The manager emphasizes their value investing approach, seeking companies that are temporarily undervalued due to setbacks or negative sentiment. He illustrates this with examples like AerCap and Naspers, where the market failed to recognize underlying value, allowing for opportunistic investments with significant upside potential. The manager discusses rising inflation expectations reflected in elevated long-term government bond yields despite central bank rate cuts. He notes that precious metals experienced explosive rallies as investors sought protection against potential currency debasement and sovereign debt concerns. Gold posted gains of around 65% in 2025, with silver rising over 145% and platinum nearly 125%. The manager attributes these gains to growing perception of potential deterioration in financial solvency of major economies and the risk of persistent inflation as governments deal with rising structural debt levels. | TCEHY SDE CN PLX FP ZEG LN ZIG LN NPSNY AER |

Three businesses in the portfolio that fit this mold have committed to return capital to shareholders through buybacks or dividends. The fund believes these businesses could deliver higher returns going forward than the Magnificent 7 through buybacks. The fund is invested in a handful of metallurgical coal businesses, with two near the bottom quartile of the cost curve and all led by exceptional managers. All three businesses have some of the best met coal reserves on the planet. The fund believes there will be no meaningful alternative to using met coal to produce steel for several decades. The fund trades at a trailing P/E of 11 compared to the S&P 500's trailing P/E of 30. The fund seeks to buy capital-light businesses with high returns on equity at no more than a bit more than tangible book value. The fund believes a metallurgical coal miner or offshore oil driller that earns even single digit returns can be a fantastic investment if purchased at a fraction of replacement cost. TAV operates 15 airports in 8 countries with guidance of 10-14% annual passenger growth across its airports, which may continue for decades. TAV has high operating leverage where if passengers grow 12%, cash flow may grow at more than 2x that. The fund believes it is led by an exceptional management team and is very cheap compared to other global airport operators. The fund is invested in a couple of U.S. homebuilders who have morphed into asset-light, efficient factories with shrewd capital return policies. The U.S. is structurally underbuilt with a deficit of 4-7 million homes. The high-quality, scale homebuilders have unique advantages that could allow them to capture a growing portion of this growing pie. Traditional car dealerships are hated by the market due to concerns with the rise of electric vehicles and the perception that EVs do not carry the same parts and repair content as traditional ICE vehicles. The fund believes the market's concerns are overblown and not valid. These are great businesses with high-margin recurring revenues that will continue for decades. The fund has a position in U.S. offshore oil services. Offshore accounts for 1/3 of global oil and gas production and breaks even at levels far below fracking.
