| 2025 Q4 | Feb 10, 2026 | Kopernik Global All-Cap Fund | 8.0% | 64.8% | 015760.KS, 3690.HK, BHP, CMCSA, CNC, CVE.TO, GLEN.L, Gold, MOH, NAK, NG, PDN.AX, RGLD, RRC, SDF.DE, SEA.TO, SQM, TPK.L, TWE.AX, VALE | diversification, global, materials, Mining, Precious Metals, undervaluation, value | Gold prices rose 65% in 2025, with precious metals miners performing strongly. The fund trimmed gold positions significantly from 15% to 9% of the portfolio due to strong performance, rolling gains into platinum and industrial metals where more upside is seen. Platinum group metals producers were among the largest contributors for the second consecutive quarter. South African companies Valterra and Impala had strong returns of 20.7% and 26.4% respectively, with substantial upside potential remaining relative to risk-adjusted intrinsic value estimates. After over a decade of underperformance, value stocks had a strong fourth quarter with Russell 1000 Value up 3.3% versus 1.2% for growth. The manager believes the market is beginning to recognize value, emphasizing buying good companies for less than they are worth. Conglomerates performed well with Cresud up 48.7% and LG Corp up 9.1%. The manager notes conglomerates are complex and difficult to analyze, frequently ignored by the market, providing significant opportunities for fundamental bottom-up analysis. | IMP SJ VAL SJ |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 22, 2026 | Pelican Bay Capital Management | 8.5% | 20.6% | ACM, BF.B, BLDR, CME, CSCO, FDS, GNRC, Gold, GOOG, MU, ODFL, ON, TOL, ZTS | AI, concentrated, healthcare, Homebuilders, Quality, semiconductors, technology, value | Portfolio benefited from strong performance in AI-related businesses, particularly Alphabet which established itself as a leading player with its Gemini Large Language Model alongside Claude and ChatGPT. The manager notes perception has improved significantly since initially purchasing GOOG in March 2023 when consensus was that Google missed the AI boom. Core investment philosophy centers on investing in high-quality companies with durable competitive advantages when they trade at steep discounts to intrinsic value. The manager emphasizes the importance of maintaining wide margins of safety and only investing when securities trade below the bottom end of their intrinsic value ranges. Homebuilding companies were weak performers due to elevated mortgage rates and slowdown in new home sales souring investor sentiment. However, the manager remains bullish on long-term prospects believing there is a housing shortage and these companies trade at large discounts to intrinsic values, adding to positions in both BLDR and TOL. | GOOGL ONON ZTS FDS ACM |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 16, 2026 | Massif Capital | 9.6% | 50.0% | 1211.HK, BHP, ENVX, EQNR, EQX.TO, GLEN.L, GLO.TO, GMIN.V, Gold, HBR.L, KGHM, LITM, LRV.AX, LUN.TO, LYB, MGN.V, MMA.V, RIO, VALE, VAR.OL | commodities, Copper, energy, geopolitics, gold, inflation, Mining, real assets | Portfolio exposure narrowed from 16% to 10% in single position (Equinox Gold). Manager believes gold serves as monetary hedge amid central bank independence concerns and persistent inverse relationship with dollar. Central bank accumulation from emerging markets expected to continue. Largest theme at 29% allocation across core positions. Structurally tight physical market with mine supply disruptions exceeding 6% of global output. Treatment charges collapsed to negative levels signaling constrained concentrate availability. Policy-driven stockpiling creates upside convexity. 16% portfolio allocation expecting price volatility as base case. Market characterized by visible surplus yet episodic geopolitical premiums. Focus on companies with proven economics at mid-cycle prices and flexible capital programs rather than directional oil price bets. Manager challenges assumptions about demand destruction and rapid substitution in energy. Views transition as energy addition rather than replacement, raising near-term energy intensity. Supply governed by decline rates rather than responsiveness. Policy creating regional cost asymmetries and oligopolies in heavy industry. Geopolitics now shapes supply chains, governs capital access, and determines project feasibility. Political alignment increasingly influences risk premia and monetization. Persistent inflation driven by labor constraints, energy dynamics, and geopolitical fragmentation challenges embedded assumptions from post-2009 regime. Higher real-rate environment appears durable rather than transitory, altering risk-return arithmetic. | GLO CN LAR LUN CN MMA CN EQNR NO HBR LN VAR NO GMIN CN EQX CN |
