1Q19 Baron Large Cap Growth Strategy Letter Baron Large Cap Growth Strategy March 31, 2019 DEAR INVESTOR: After steep losses to end last year, global equity markets rallied sharply, and U.S. large-cap equities participated fully, registering the best start to the PERFORMANCE year since 1998. Investors appear to have shrugged off concerns over declining earnings growth, weakening economic data, and the continued 2019 is off to a good start, and we were able to reverse most of last lack of a resolution in U.S.-China trade negotiations, choosing instead to quarter’s losses. Baron Large Cap Growth Strategy gained 18.70% (net of focus on more attractive valuations. Federal Reserve Chairman Powell fees) in the March quarter, outperforming the Russell 1000 Growth Index, abruptly reversed course, returning U.S. monetary policy back to its “data which returned 16.1%, and the S&P 500 Index, which rose 13.7%. dependent” path and, in the process, signaling more accommodative interest rates for the near future. We would argue that it was that change, Table I. more than anything else, that caused the first quarter rally. Performance Annualized for periods ended March 31, 2019 The Strategy’s strong performance was largely attributable to stock Baron Large Baron Large Russell selection, which contributed over 400 basis points to outperformance Cap Growth Cap Growth 1000 relative to the Russell 1000 Growth Index, while allocation effect Strategy Strategy Growth S&P 500 (net)1 (gross)1 Index1 Index1 detracted approximately 140 basis points, mostly due to cash, which diluted returns in a rising market.

  • Matching with IAC $IAC $MTCH
    Matching with IAC $IAC $MTCH IAC Interactive (IAC; disclosure: long) represents the opportunity to invest in a company trading for roughly the same price of its publicly traded equity stakes despite the presence of world class capital allocators with a proven history of realizing shareholder value at the opportune time, hundreds of millions in net cash on their balance sheet, and a grab bag of other (quite valuable) assets. Let me start with a bit of background: IAC is a conglomerate controlled by mogul Barry Diller. The company has a long and storied history which makes for interesting reading (at various points in time, they’ve owned big stakes in everything from a Japanese home shopping network to Ticketmaster and a variety of other big internet companies) but is a bit beyond the scope of this article; however, what is worth noting is that an investment in IAC since its inception in 1995 has destroyed a similar investment in the S&P 500: Anyway, today IAC has five main sources of value. I’ll go over them briefly below, but I’d encourage you to check out their FY16 letter for a bit more depth into their businesses: 1. Match.com (MTCH): IAC owns 80%+ of publicly traded Match.com, which owns Match, Tinder, and several other popular dating sites. 2. ANGI Homeservices (ANGI): IAC owns ~85% of ANGI Homeservices, which was formed by the merger of IAC’s HomeAdvisor with Angie’s List. 3. Video- IAC fully owns this segment, which includes Vimeo, CollegeHumor, Daily Burn, and a few others.
