● | We don’t hug benchmarks. In practical terms, this means we are willing to make big “negative bets,” i.e., having nothing or little in what has become big in the benchmark. Conversely, we will generally seek to avoid overly large positive bets. |
● | We prefer having diversified portfolios (100 to 150 names). Because we invest on a global basis, we believe that diversification helps protect against weak corporate governance or insufficient disclosure, or simply against “unknown unknowns.” |
● | We like the flexibility to invest in small, medium and large companies, depending on where we see value. |
● | We attempt to capture equity-type returns through fixed income securities but predominantly when credit markets (or sub-sets of them) are depressed and offer this potential. |
● | We hold some gold, either in bullion form or via gold mining securities, as we feel it provides a good hedge in either an inflationary or deflationary period. |
● | We are willing to hold cash when we cannot find enough cheap securities that we like or when we find some, yet the broader market (Mr. Market) seems fully priced. We will seek to use that cash as ammunition for future bargains. |
● | At the individual security level, we ask a lot of questions about “what can go wrong?” and will establish not only a “base case intrinsic value” but also a “worst case scenario.” (What could prove us wrong? If we were wrong, are we likely to lose 25%, 30%, or even more of the money invested?). As a result, we will miss some opportunities, yet hopefully, we will also avoid instances where we experience a permanent impairment of value. |

1 | We still believe that economic growth will remain modest in the next five years due to the ongoing deleveraging of the private sector in Western economies. We believe the U.S. economy may only grow 2 to 2.5% per annum over this period as there is little evidence of strong job creation while consumers may show a preference to save and banks a reluctance to lend. Economic growth may be even more muted in Europe where countries from Southern Europe (Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy), Ireland and Eastern Europe are trying to downsize, potentially hurting in the process countries, such as Germany or France, where households did not “misbehave” (in terms of indebtedness and excess consumption). |
2 | Modest economic growth is not necessarily bad for equities worldwide. The big surprise during this downturn has been the ability of many companies around the world to cut costs and maintain very high profitability levels. So even pedestrian top line growth for five years may still translate into significant free cash flows generated by companies year after year. In our view, any attempt by politicians to tamper with free trade would be a negative for stocks worldwide, as we believe this unusually strong profitability is in good part due to globalization: it allowed companies to move assets and labor to places where costs are lower. |
3 | Even though stocks have bounced back – sometimes significantly – from their March 2009 lows, they remain cheaper than they were in late 2007 while corporate balance sheets have improved in the meantime. Also, even though many stocks are not that cheap on an absolute basis, they do not appear expensive either and their valuation certainly suggests that, on a relative basis, they are quite attractive compared to fixed income securities (where yields have come down so much) and compared to cash yielding so little, “real” interest rates are actually negative in quite a few countries. |
4 | We would not be surprised to see equity markets remain volatile for a few more years to come. That may unnerve some investors, but that volatility makes our job as value investors much easier. We were able to put some cash to work during this past spring when markets corrected, especially in the U.S. |
Letter from the Portfolio Managers | IVA Funds |
5 | We believe that after a twenty year bear market, valuation of some Japanese equities is quite compelling. Many stocks trade below book value while many companies have vast amounts of excess cash that they could distribute – through dividends or stock buybacks – to their shareholders. Also intriguing is that Japan now exports more to China than to the U.S. so one can find a growing list of companies in Japan where an increasing portion of their revenues are tied to China, and where stock prices are a lot more compelling than Chinese stocks. We remain aware that the pace of change is glacial in Japan (minority shareholders still come in second, if not third, to customers and employees). And we worry about the high government debt outstanding. So we have exercised restraint in terms of total exposure to Japan and we have partially hedged the currency exposure to the yen. |
6 | We still believe some allocation to gold (a little over 6% as of September 30, 2010) is warranted even though gold prices have gone up significantly since July 2001. We view gold as an “insurance policy” and are encouraged to retain some exposure to gold as real interest trades are negative in many currencies and as few of the leading currencies (U.S. dollar, euro and yen) appear attractive long-term. |
