As the global pandemic continues to disrupt the stock market, investors are constantly adapting to the ever-changing economic landscape. In the midst of all this chaos, Sensato Investors LLC, based in New York City, released its Q1 2020 and Q2 2020 13F holdings, providing insight into how the firm has managed to navigate the ongoing crisis.
Sensato Investors LLC, with a portfolio valued at $371 million, is a boutique investment firm that seeks out opportunities in both long and short equity positions. It focuses on buying companies that have strong fundamentals and a high growth potential, while shorting stocks of companies that are overvalued and have weak financials.
In Q1 2020, Sensato had a total of 25 holdings worth approximately $184.4 million, with its top five holdings being Daqo New Energy Corp, WNS Holdings Ltd, Vipshop Hldgs Ltd, BHP Group Ltd, and KT Corp. However, in Q2 2020, Sensato's holdings changed significantly as it divested from all the stocks it held in Q1, with the exception of Daqo New Energy Corp, which remained as its top holding.
Sensato's Q2 2020 13F filing with the SEC shows that it has invested in a new set of companies, with its top five holdings being ZTO Express Cayman Inc, Zai Lab Ltd, Infy, HDFC Bank Ltd, and LexinFintech Hldgs Ltd. The firm has shifted its focus to companies in the healthcare sector, as well as companies that provide financial and banking services.
Among the most notable changes in Sensato's holdings is its decision to completely divest from NetEase Inc, New Oriental Ed & Tech Grp I, ResMed Inc, Yum China Hldgs Inc, and Alibaba Group Hldg Ltd, which were all among its top holdings in Q1 2020. The firm has also reduced its position in some of its Q1 holdings, such as Sk Telecom Ltd and Infosys Ltd.
Sensato's decision to divest from some of its top holdings in Q1 and invest in new companies in Q2 reflects its ability to adapt to the constantly changing market environment. The firm's focus on investing in companies that have strong fundamentals and high growth potential has allowed it to weather the storm caused by the pandemic and position itself for future growth.
In conclusion, Sensato Investors LLC's Q1 2020 and Q2 2020 13F filings show that the firm has made significant changes to its holdings, as it adjusts to the constantly changing economic landscape caused by the pandemic. By divesting from some of its top holdings in Q1 and investing in new companies in Q2, Sensato has proven its ability to adapt to a rapidly changing market, while still adhering to its investment philosophy of investing in companies with strong fundamentals and high growth potential.
