Sycomore Partners

Sycomore Partners is a concentrated stock picking fund with variable equity exposure of between 0% and 100%. It seeks significant returns over a 5-year investment horizon with a concentrated selection of highly discounted European stocks, and opportunistic, discretionary management of equity market exposure.

Inflation readings came in generally lower than expected, enabling the market to post robust gains during the month. For investors, the scenario of a central bank pivot is back on the cards - implying potential monetary easing from next year - amid an economic slowdown. Bond yields began to trend downwards, benefiting technology companies and quality/growth stocks in particular. Within the portfolio, we sold our positions in Air Liquide, Saint-Gobain, Ackermans and Faurecia, initiated a position in Porsche and strengthened the weightings of SGS, Geberit, Walt Disney, Elis and ALD – which has recently been authorised by the European Commission to purchase its competitor LeasePlan.
