This is the Q2 portfolio update of Yacktman Fund. Don Yacktman did not initiated any new positions, but he added heavily into his existing positions and eliminated a few others.
Some investors do well in up years; some others do well in down years, but it is very hard to beat the market in both ways. Donald Yacktman seems to be doing just that.
In 2008, when the market lost 37% and a lot of other value investors did even worse, Yacktman Fund did better than the market by 11%. At the bottom of the market declines, he shifted heavily into beaten down distressed companies, and gained 59.31% in 2009. According to his shareholder letter just released, he fund did better than the market by about 2% in the first half of 2010.
This gives Yacktman Fund a total return of 35% over the past 5 years, and 206.8% over the past 10 years. In the same periods, the S&P400 lost 3.9% and 14.79%, respectively.
Not surprisingly, Yacktman Funds has seen his asset under management ballooned to more than $3 billion over past 12 months, after below $1 billion for more than a decade.
Currently Mr. Yacktman is heavily invested in high quality holdings. He commented: “We strive to be as objective as possible in evaluating all opportunities, and if the best businesses in the world are available at compelling valuations we are willing to own big positions in them. We sleep well at night knowing that dominant, well capitalized companies purchased at attractive valuations should produce solid results over time, even in a world with an extreme amount of uncertainty.”
But they are flexible, as they did buy heavily into distressed situations at the market low of 2009. “We are willing to own lower quality business, but we have to project a meaningfully higher expected rate of return on the investment. Currently, we think most of the best values are in the highest quality companies.”
