Manager comments
The Fund returned 1.60% in March against a difficult backdrop for equities globally.
Positive drug trial data and consolidation in the biotechnology space continued during the month, producing strong positive
contribution. The specialty retail sub-sector produced positive contribution as teen retailing and cosmetics companies were strong
performers. In addition, auto suppliers and auto-related service companies contributed nicely. Household durables were another
source of gains as Chinese appliance stocks, Japanese home electronics and a South African furniture manufacturer drove positive
returns.
In terms of detractors to performance, short exposure to large diversified European banks caused losses as these stocks generally
climbed due to Euro zone quantitative easing. Long exposure to chemical companies also caused losses.
At the individual manager level, the top contributor, a consumer specialist, benefited from long exposure to discretionary names with
perceived longer term growth opportunities, in segments including jewellery, teen retailing and discount hotel chains. A U.S.
generalist was the second-best performer and produced gains on the short side of their portfolio, particularly in technology and
healthcare. A European specialist also provided gains from cyclical names, which the manager believes could benefit from an
upturn in European economic activity.
The top detracting manager, a financials specialist, lost money in consumer finance, mortgage servicers and insurance names. Short
exposure detracted from performance for the second-largest detractor, a consumer focused manager, who also lost money on long
positions in grocery store companies. Despite making money in the Kraft deal announcement, a U.S. generalist also detracted from
performance as financials, materials and technology-related exposure caused losses.
During the month, the Fund fully redeemed from a financial specialist who retired from the industry. Additionally, a material addition
was made to a consumer manager, based on Lighthouse’s outlook for the sector and their view of the manager’s ability to generate
gains in a low net manner.
As we enter April, Lighthouse’s outlook remains stable. Lighthouse expect volatility to continue at a level higher than the past few
years as markets remain focused on energy prices, currency moves relative to the U.S. dollar, the ongoing Greek debt discussions,
geopolitical events and the divergence of monetary policy around the world. While these factors continue to drive headlines and
overall market volatility, the Fund’s portfolio managers remain focused on identifying stock-specific fundamental opportunities (both
long and short). Finally, Lighthouse continue to do more work on potential manager additions, to which they expect to allocate in
the coming months.
