Partnership Profile

Alluvial Fund, LP is dedicated to identifying and profiting from deeply mis-priced securities in the US and abroad. Alluvial Fund focuses on small firms, thinly-traded issues and special situations, seeking to identify value that the market has yet to notice.

A poor report from School Specialty and fears of a declining metallurgical coal prices hurt Alluvial Fund’s performance. Broadly positive earnings results from the portfolio’s largest holdings were insufficient to stem the decline.
