Fund Strategy - The fund focuses on companies outside the "Magnificent Seven" (Mag 7) due to over-analysis and concentration risks in those stocks [1][3][8] - The fund seeks blue-chip compounding companies with better idiosyncratic growth profiles and valuations compared to the Mag 7 [4] Broadcom Analysis - Broadcom is a key holding, representing approximately 85% of the fund, similar to Nvidia's weight in the S&P 500 [1] - The market is underestimating the growth potential of Broadcom's non-AI portfolio, which includes software (VMware) and recovering semiconductor segments [4][5] - The market estimates Broadcom's non-AI portfolio to grow by virtually 0% next year, which the fund believes is too low [4] Fujikura and Fujitsu - The fund includes Japanese-listed stocks like Fujikura and Fujitsu to diversify away from the Mag 7 [5][6] - Fujikura is the dominant leader in ultra-high-density optical fiber cables, controlling 40% of the market [6] - Fujikura's growth is expected to be around 12% this year, slowing to 7-8% over the next two years [7] - Fujikura benefits from the AI boom, as its cables are essential for highly dense GPU clusters in data centers [6][7] Market Outlook - The fund sees low expectations for companies outside the Mag 7, particularly in areas like data center buildout [8] - The fund believes there is a divergence between reasonable valuations and the potential to beat expectations outside of US large-cap tech stocks [8]
This growth fund looks far beyond the Mag 7 to profit from AI
