⚡ Quantum Brief
The fund’s Retail Class shares rose 2.14% in Q4 2025, outperforming the international real estate sector index but trailing the MSCI EAFE Index’s 4.89% gain, reflecting selective stock performance amid broader market growth. A 19% surge in National Storage REIT followed a takeover bid by Brookfield Asset Management and Singapore’s GIC, highlighting consolidation trends in global real estate markets during the quarter. Managers reduced Australia exposure, making it the fund’s largest underweight by year-end 2025, signaling strategic shifts away from regional dependencies amid evolving market conditions. The fund prioritizes long-term, secular-growth stocks over short-term drivers, aligning with its focus on sustainable business models in real estate investments. AI integration in real estate operations emerged as a key research priority, with management exploring its potential to reshape strategies and efficiency in the sector.
