Seahawk Equity L/S Fund – Factsheet December
During the month of December the USD-S-Class has gained +8.8%. The YTD fund performance is at +16.9%. The annualised return since inception is at 14.6%.
After the strong market rally during the previous month the stock market has shown further strength. Before year end the major indexes hit all-time-highs. Given a potential demand recovery during 2021 the price of Brent Oil has moved up further from US $ 48.0 / barrel at the end of last month to US $ 51.8 / barrel by the end of December thereby giving energy stocks a further lift. In this environment the transportation sectors have been more or less range-bound throughout the month. Within the shipping sector VLGC-rates have increased to around US$ 100k/day and the strong increase in Asian gas demand have propelled LNG spot freight rates (large carriers) to more than US$ 150k/day by the end December. The SCFI (Shanghai Containerized Freight Index) continued to trend upward another 20% to now ultra-high levels. Most individual long positions were profitable. Renewable energy stocks led the gains. Overall hedging positions have contributed negatively. The overall fund result was strong.
