| 2025 Q4 | Feb 23, 2026 | Barometer Capital Management Inc. | 0.0% | 0.0% | AEM.TO, BBD-B.TO, BVN, CAT, CLS.TO, CPX.TO, FTT.TO, GOOGL, HWM, K.TO, LRCX, MS, NA.TO, POW.TO, RTX, RY.TO, SAN, SE, TTWO, TVE.TO | AI, Canada, Copper, defense, energy, financials, Precious Metals, semiconductors | AI infrastructure remained a pillar of market leadership despite some consolidation in December. The market continued to distinguish between AI-enablers where demand remained strong and more cyclical parts of the chip complex, reinforcing the durability of the infrastructure buildout theme. Semiconductors exposed to AI maintained strength as semiconductor capital spending remained supported by AI-driven demand for advanced chips. Defense spending stayed elevated amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, supporting backlog strength and long-cycle earnings durability for aerospace and defense companies. RTX and Howmet extended gains as commercial aerospace demand remained strong and defense spending supported long-cycle revenue visibility through backlogs. Precious metals experienced renewed volatility during the quarter, with gold and silver weakening sharply into the end of October after an extended run higher. The pullback created opportunity as the manager re-engaged at lower levels when the market stabilized and the broader macro backdrop remained supportive for hard assets. Gold miners delivered strong returns throughout the year despite some weakness in final days of December. Copper prices surged into year-end amid rising demand tied to electrification, infrastructure, and data-center buildouts, alongside persistent supply constraints. This supported miners levered to the copper theme, with materials exposure contributing positively through companies like Hudbay Minerals and Rio Tinto benefiting from strength in copper and base metals. The portfolio benefited from exposure to global power demand themes, with Caterpillar continuing to benefit from robust demand in its energy & transportation business increasingly tied to expanding global power needs, particularly the build-out of AI data centers requiring reliable on-site generation capacity. Nuclear energy remained supported by structural tailwinds including rising global demand for reliable baseload power. Financials added to returns with banks demonstrating strong earnings power and shareholder return capacity. Morgan Stanley benefited from a supportive backdrop for capital markets activity and wealth management momentum, while Canadian banks continued to demonstrate resilient profitability and capital strength supporting shareholder return expectations. | TVE CN LRCX CAT |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | ROCKLINC Partners Fund | 0.7% | 20.3% | AAPL, ACA, AEM.TO, AMZN, APG, BIP.TO, BN.TO, BUR.L, CCO.TO, CSL, DHR, FNV.TO, GROY, KNSL, KPG.AX, MELI, MKL, NOW, OR.V, PLD, RGLD, ROP, RPRX, SII.TO, TSU.TO, WPM.TO | active management, Canada, ETFs, gold, Precious Metals, Silver, uranium, value | Gold delivered one of its strongest annual performances in decades during 2025, with a 64.5% gain to $4,318 per ounce. 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. Sprott has successfully positioned itself at the center of the modern energy transition through its dominance in the uranium sector. The Sprott Physical Uranium Trust is now the largest holder of physical uranium in the world, effectively becoming the institutional gateway for nuclear energy exposure. | SII |
