The fund faced a difficult investment environment in the second quarter of 2026, as momentum-driven markets and soaring semiconductor stocks sharply favored growth-oriented equities over the fund's value-focused approach. Class I shares declined 6.60% during the quarter, significantly underperforming the 14.93% gain for the MSCI ACWI, while the fund's one-year return stood at 21.88%, versus 23.67% for the benchmark.

On September 1, Sibanye Stillwater (NYSE:SBSW) reported figures that would have seemed unthinkable a year earlier. Revenue jumped 64% to R90 billion ($5.5 billion), and headline earnings per share rocketed 216% to R6.01 from R1.90 in the first half of 2025. A year ago, the company posted a R3.9 billion loss. This time it posted an R18.8 billion profit. Higher prices for platinum group metals and gold did the heavy lifting, but how management used the windfall, on debt and dividends rather than empire building, is what makes the quarter worth a second look.Sibanye Stillwater's (SBSW) Record Hal

How the page works

How to read the score

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme. This is a rule-based evidence measure, not a calibrated probability.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

What the page does

It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.

Evidence context
