Summary cont.
● On a bottom up basis we find very little to buy
● Consensus is that we have left the problems of the GFC behind us – we disagree
● The major problem is the level of debt. Japan and the ECB are printing money as a result, China is devaluing its currency but the US is going the other way
● The US will eventually have to follow and resume QE
● This will be the catalyst for a higher gold price

So, 100% of the market believes the Fed will hike rates, but
● 1Q15, nominal GDP growth was + 3%
● Since the beginning of the US expansion (mid 2010) US nominal GDP has averaged 3.9% and the range has been 3.3% to 4.7%
● So, a rate rise here will be unprecedented (also need to think about current level of asset prices and debt)
Since 1948, there have been 118 Fed rate hikes
116 of these were when nominal GDP >4.5%
(and 112 of these were when nominal GDP >5.5%)
2 were when nominal GDP <4.5%, (one reversed
one month later)

Conclusion
● We have been underperforming for 4 years – the longest downcycle for value since 1995 –1999
● The valuation gaps between the cheapest and most expensive stocks is as big as we have ever seen
● We believe we are reaching the end of the cycle – we are seeing signs of capitulation selling and the demise of value managers
● Our portfolio reflects our high conviction level – we have seen this cycle before and we will be around to see the beginning of the next up-cycle
