“At the single stock level, a notable performer during Q3 2020 was Maxar Technologies, whose price doubled in six months from the Fund’s initial purchase on the back of improved orders in the satellite manufacturing segment and stable cash flow in the earth intelligence (satellite imagery) segment. The story is improving but I felt the shares had run up too fast (and become too large a holding) and decided to exit.”
