Quant Arbitrage Fund
The fund remains heavily anchored in its liquid fund position while maintaining a concentrated equity portfolio tilted toward financial services and infrastructure plays. Recent portfolio churn—adding cyclical names like healthcare and fintech while trimming telecom and e-commerce—suggests the manager is rotating toward defensible dividend payers and economically-sensitive plays positioned for near-term stability. The 16-point drop in cash equivalents signals increased conviction in equity valuations despite elevated concentration risk.
