While we do not claim to be economists, we wanted to share some of our thoughts for the upcoming year.

With the rising interest rates to compact inflation, the ongoing layoffs, the geopolitical tensions and the financial industry turbulence, we anticipate another challenging year rather than a healthy macro environment for 2023. Thankfully, recession is not here yet and a soft-landing scenario appears more possible.

As shown in the screenshot below, the International Monetary Fund ("IMF") projects a more prominent slowdown in advanced economies like the US and the Euro Area.

Although the macro environment is crucial and can impact our forecasts or even the timing of opening a position, our investment strategy is long term oriented. We strive to select stocks with resilient business models that can sustain economic cycles.

Our Q1 2023 and Year to Date (“YTD”) total return as of 31 Mar 2023 was 16.3% compared to 7.5% of S&P 500. As a result of the Q1 2023 performance, our return since inception (28 January 2022) turned positive to 5.2% compared to a negative 5.4% of the S&P 500 over the same period.
