| 2024 Q4 | Jan 2, 2025 | Night Watch Investment Management | -2.9% | 10.3% | 1126.HK, 2318.HK, AER, AL, ALLFG.AS, AMRK, ATRO, DSGR, JOE, MELE.BR, MRX.L, RELY, UAL, VAL, XFAB.PA | aerospace, catalysts, China, energy, Europe, global, Onshoring, value | Offshore energy exposure was the largest detractor in 2024, but the thesis remains unchanged.
