Samsung has long been a leader in memory including NAND, DRAM, and now HBM, with memory chips appearing in AI data centers and broad array of IOT devices from cars to refrigerators to wearables. The U.S. indices reached record highs driven by artificial intelligence exuberance.

| 2025 Q4 | Feb 10, 2026 | PM Capital Enhanced Yield Fund | 0.8% | 4.6% | 2282.HK, 8570.PA, APO, BAER.L, BHP.AX, CABK.MC, CGF.AX, COL.AX, CRN.L, CS.AX, FCX, FDV.AX, FOXA, HEIA.AS, IMI.L, INGA.AS, LLOY.L, NEM, NSC, NST.AX, QUB.AX, RPRX, SHL.DE, SMR.AX, TECK, TSCO.L, UNP, WDS.AX, WOW.AX | Bonds, credit, fixed income, inflation, rates, Yield | Despite signs of re-emergence of higher inflation across major global developed economies including Australia in the December quarter, the fund delivered positive returns. Australian bond yields increased significantly with three year bonds rising over 60 basis points and 10 year bonds almost 50 basis points, representing a shift from rate cut expectations to multiple rate increase expectations in 2026. The fund increased exposure to fixed interest rates during the quarter as markets became overly optimistic about cash rate increases in 2026. Management believes multiple rate increases would put notable downward pressure on the economy given cost-of-living pressures and higher house prices remain issues. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Feb 10, 2026 | PM Capital Global Companies Fund | 7.8% | 38.3% | 2282.HK, APO, BARC.L, BHP.AX, CABK.MC, CGF.AX, CRN.L, CS.AX, FCX, FDV.AX, FOXA, IMI.L, LLOY.L, NEM, NSC, NST.AX, SHL.DE, SMR.AX, TECK, UNP | Banking, commodities, Copper, Europe, gold, infrastructure, Railroads, value | Copper surged 17% over the quarter, driven by supply risks and production disruptions at major mines. Portfolio holdings Freeport McMoRan, Teck Resources, and BHP delivered strong performance. The fund maintains conviction in copper due to tightening supply, record prices, and geopolitical uncertainty. Gold gained 12% in the quarter, reaching record highs and delivering extraordinary 64% gains for 2025. Monetary policy uncertainty and geopolitical tensions provided positive backdrop. Portfolio holdings Newmont and Northern Star Resources contributed meaningfully to performance. Union Pacific's proposed merger with Norfolk Southern would create the first coast-to-coast rail network in the US, potentially unlocking rail's potential to capture long-distance freight. The unified network could benefit broader US supply chains and provide the next leg of growth for an industry that has relied on efficiency gains. European banking sector produced strong outperformance led by Bank of Ireland, Lloyds Banking Group, and CaixaBank. Sector returns supported by interest rate stabilization and yield curve steepening. The market is transitioning toward improving organic loan growth after fifteen years of stagnant credit activity. | CRN LN APO SHL GR UNP LLOY LN BIRG LN IMI LN TECK FCX |

| 2025 Q3 | Oct 31, 2025 | Bireme Capital | - | - | AAPL, FOXA, HUM, RICK | fundamentals, Marginofsafety, mispricing, Patience, value | The manager stresses deep value investing focused on misunderstood or neglected assets.

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 21, 2026 | Harbor Mid Cap Value Fund | 4.1% | 16.0% | AMKR, BK, CFG, COIN, EA, ENS, EXPE, FOXA, GM, GTX, HIW, HLF, HOG, HOOD, HPQ, JAZZ, KR, NEU, OC, PHM, PLAB, PVH, SNDK, STT, TXT, WBD, WDC | Buybacks, consumer discretionary, dividends, financials, mid cap, technology, value | The fund maintains its disciplined value investment approach, seeking high-quality, profitable companies that generate cash, pay dividends, and repurchase shares. Mid- and small-cap value stocks continue to trade at attractive multiples despite strong relative performance. AI-driven demand for storage led to strong earnings and increases in revenue growth and margins for technology holdings. AI-related technology stocks may appear priced to perfection, but the fund continues to identify opportunities among mid-cap value stocks. The fund seeks companies that repurchase shares, viewing aggressive stock buybacks positively. Several holdings including General Motors, Garrett Motion, and EnerSys have been aggressively buying back stock. | AMKR EA ENS GTX |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | Contrarius Global Equity Fund | 6.5% | 54.4% | 000660.KS, BIDU, COIN, DELL, DEO, FOXA, GOOGL, KER.PA, LULU, MDLZ, MU, NVDA, ORCL, PARA, RI.PA, SATS, TSLA, TSM, UHR.SW | AI, contrarian, disruption, global, Satellites, Space, technology, value | The fund views AI disruption as creating three investment buckets: AI winners (data centers, semiconductors, blockchain companies), AI-proof companies (luxury brands, spirits, entertainment), and AI-threatened businesses to avoid. This technological singularity is expected to cause dramatic changes beyond typical generational disruptions. The fund focuses on identifying companies with sustainable competitive advantages in this transformative environment. SpaceX has revolutionized space travel with reusable rockets and dominates launch services, carrying over 500,000kg of spacecraft mass in Q3 2025 alone. The company is uniquely positioned for emerging opportunities in interplanetary logistics, in-orbit data centers, and asteroid mining. EchoStar provides indirect exposure to SpaceX through strategic transactions at attractive valuations. Starlink has achieved significant scale with millions of active customers and is expanding into direct-to-cell services for smartphones. The satellite internet constellation aims to deliver high-speed, low-latency broadband globally, particularly to underserved areas. This represents a major growth opportunity in telecommunications infrastructure. EchoStar's transformation involved monetizing valuable spectrum licenses worth billions, resolving regulatory issues with the FCC. The company sold spectrum to AT&T and SpaceX for over $40 billion combined, demonstrating the significant value of these invisible wireless highways. Remaining spectrum assets provide additional monetization opportunities. The fund holds luxury brands like Kering, Swatch Group, and spirits companies as AI-proof investments. These companies with strong brand moats and pricing power are expected to endure and potentially thrive despite AI disruption. Their business models are considered resilient to technological changes affecting other industries. | SATS |
