Ruffer LLP

What the manager wrote
Alibaba was the largest positive contributor to the fund in July, with its share price up nearly 30%. This performance was driven by the announcement of a powerful yet cheap new Chinese AI model, Kimi K3, which was trained using Alibaba’s cloud technology. The exceptional asymmetry on offer in many of the assets the fund currently holds means small changes in news flow or fundamentals can lead to outsize positive performance, highlighting Alibaba's strong position in the AI sector and its potential for future growth.

What the manager wrote
Alibaba represents our primary exposure to the Chinese market. Despite the persistent geopolitical noise and macroeconomic headwinds in the region, the business generates massive free cash flow and trades at a remarkably depressed valuation. This combination of strong cash generation and attractive valuation makes Alibaba a compelling investment opportunity in the current market environment.
