Why Settle for Just One Side of the Opportunity?
Conventional long-only funds can make money when stock prices go up. However, return generation within markets is inherently non-linear and characterized by periodic dislocations. Every year, multiple stocks fall in value due to overvaluation, sector headwinds etc. Even within positive market environments, a notable proportion of stocks have delivered negative returns despite broader index gains.
These inefficiencies create a compelling opportunity for strategies that can actively capture both directional upside (through long positions) and tactical downside opportunities (through short positions via derivatives).
Introducing Summit Equity Long-Short Fund
Designed to capture both long and short opportunities.
Summit Equity Long-Short Fund aims to deliver risk-adjusted returns across market conditions by constructing a fundamentally driven long portfolio through rigorous bottom-up stock selection. Additionally, the fund will employ tactical short positions in stocks anticipated to underperform. It thus maintains the flexibility to take both long and short exposures, enabling it to effectively capitalize on market volatility and evolving opportunities.
