Scharf ETF
About KAT
The Scharf ETF (KAT) primarily invests in equity securities that the adviser believes have significantly more appreciation potential than downside risk over the long term.
Our bottom-up fundamental research process focuses on exploiting four key market inefficiencies: low valuation factors, quality characteristics, time arbitrage opportunities, and negative sentiment cycles. By maintaining a long-term perspective and concentrated portfolio of 25-35 highest-conviction holdings, KAT aims to deliver strong risk-adjusted returns for investors seeking defensive value exposure with alpha generation potential.
