Dear Partners and Friends,

Our portfolio continued its recovery in the second quarter, and at a stronger pace than the broader market indices. During the second quarter, our portfolio appreciated +11.98% (net of fees), compared with the S&P 500 at +4.30% and the MSCI World index at +3.45%.

This brings our year-to-date performance to +28.48% vs. +18.54% for the S&P 500 and +16.33% for the MSCI World. The performance was led by our newest positions in Sea Ltd and Carvana, which have appreciated +193.6% and +92.3% year-to-date, respectively.
