Diversification and Flexibility
The portfolio, though concentrated, showcases diversification across different investment styles and market capitalisation ranges, presenting a varied collection of ideas as illustrated in the chart below. The S&P oval shape indicates a preference for larger stocks, while maintaining minimal exposure to mid-cap stocks, and virtually no involvement in micro to mid-cap stocks. Furthermore, the fund benefits from flexibility, allowing the portfolio manager to pursue opportunities across styles and market cap as they arise.
