  • Quarterly Investor Letter March 2015
    Quarterly investor letter March 2015 ‘In the short term the market is like a voting machine tallying up which firms are popular and unpopular. In the long run, the mar- ket is like a weighing machine—assessing the substance of a company.’ Benjamin Graham Dear fellow shareholders, As long term investors, the partners at Castlebay are wary of measuring investment performance over short periods of time, such as a calendar quarter or even a year. Our approach to this quarterly letter is to set out for you our investment philosophy and to update you along the way, in what we hope will be a long and prosperous investment journey with us. As stock-pickers we shall highlight one or two stock examples in each letter. Through our commentary we aim to explain clearly how we ‘assess the substance of the companies’ in which we invest, whilst ignoring the market herd who ‘vote’ with increasing frequency and cost, due to their myopia. The value of investments can fall as well as rise and you might not get back what you have invested. Our guiding principles are set out below and we hope you enjoy the read! Our guiding principles: Transparency & alignment of best interests with our fellow shareholders Adherence to our investment philosophy and process—high quality & supportive valuations Independence of thought in order to avoid the market herd A focus on costs: management fees capped, low turnover of companies in the fund The Portfolio in the first quarter 2015 The launch of the fund at the end of January coincided with a strong recovery in Petrofac which had sold off heavily in the final quarter of 2014 as the price of oil plummeted & investors became irrational sellers of all oil related companies.

  • Underthebonnet
    JOHCM UK DYNAMIC FUND UNDER THE BONNET 2019 ANNUAL REVIEW Alex Savvides, Senior Fund Manager Tom Matthews, Analyst INVESTMENT BACKGROUND Global equity markets continued to move higher in December as economic indicators showed a pick-up in global growth, there was further progress in US-China trade discussions and the UK’s Conservative party won an overall majority in the general election. The JP Morgan Global Composite PMI ticked up from the previous month’s 44-month low following a steepening in China’s composite PMI growth rate and a strengthening in US business activity. US equities had a remarkable year, capped by President Trump announcing he would sign a phase one trade deal with China in January and move to negotiations on phase two. The S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average and NASDAQ 100 total return indices all reached new all-time highs in December, with gains of 32%, 25% and 40% respectively for the year. We wrote the following in August’s ‘Under the Bonnet’: “When we come to reflect on 2019, July will likely be seen as a decisive… a month in which geopolitical brinkmanship came to a head, leading government and central bank policies to be reappraised which ultimately may lead to a new market narrative.” The progress in the US-China trade deal marked a clear de-escalation in this brinkmanship globally, but starker still were the final quarter’s developments in the UK: a new withdrawal agreement negotiated with the EU and - in December alone - the Conservative Party winning an historic majority in the general election and the withdrawal agreement subsequently being passed by parliament more than 13 months after Theresa May’s cabinet first backed her deal.
