Investment Strategy and Market Conditions

The current investment environment is characterized by high valuations and significant geopolitical uncertainty, particularly in North America. Investors are encouraged to adopt a value investing approach by seeking companies trading below their intrinsic value and holding them for the medium to long term. Maintaining a cash position is deemed necessary to mitigate risks, especially for clients desiring lower volatility in their portfolios. Moreover, having cash available allows investors to act quickly and capitalize on opportunities when the market presents them.
