Small-cap stocks continue to underperform:

The Russell 2000 relative to the S&P 500 has dropped to its lowest level since January 2001.

The ratio between small-cap and large-cap stocks has declined 36.0% over the last 4 years.

This comes as the S&P 500 has gained +41.8% while the Russell 2000 has fallen -10.0% during this period.

This year alone, small-cap stocks have fallen -9.7%, more than double the S&P 500's -4.5% decline.

Without more economic certainty, small caps will lag.

An interesting case of an Asian family holding business, Jardine Matheson, pivoting from an owner-operator model to an investment company.

Founded as an opium trader in 1832, the company plans to focus on higher returns for shareholders.

Major assets (almost all listed):
- Hongkong Land - owns much of the territory’s business district

- Mandarin Oriental - a luxury hotel chain

- DFI Retail - runs Ikea stores in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Indonesia, among other businesses.

- Astra - an Indonesian conglomerate (the biggest source of profits)

Jardine generates c. $5bn of operating CF on $53bn equity.

Te discount to NAV at 30%, not as wide as in other cases (incl Exor’s 50%).
