The harsh portfolio!

I have been able to find some opportunities to deploy cash (summary below).

  • Increased position size in Sharda Cropchem from 2% to 4%. Their recent growth has been really impressive, they are cheap and growing fast
  • Added Aegis Logistics (4% position size). Growth is coming back, though the Vopak deal was at lower valuation, it opens new opportunities in new chemicals. I will post more details in a subsequent post
  • Added Control Prints (2% position size). Niche business with reasonable growth, attractive economics
  • Added Shemaroo as a deep value bet (1% position size). Business is reviving and valuations are very cheap.

As a result, cash position has been reduced to 10%.
