Manager Commentary
Quarterly Highlights - March 2025
- The Fund returned -0.4% on a net basis in March. The selloff in equity markets continued as investors braced for the announcement of reciprocal tariffs. Despite broad-based weakness, REITs exhibited relative resilience as the defensive nature of real estate assets provided stability during heightened uncertainty. The Fund mitigated most of the market’s downturn through dynamic beta management and market-neutral alpha strategies. We began the month with a lighter net beta exposure as a precautionary measure. The contractual nature of leases and predictable earnings in real estate offer transparency and stability, which is rare in the macro environment we currently face. The Fund will seek to increase beta exposure as market weakness presents buying opportunities.
The returns are based on Class F1 units, net return.
