Ranger Fund Monthly Performance Commentaries
April 2018The Ranger Fund was down 0.13%.
“Redbubble was the main detractor as its 3rd quarter sales update appears to have missed short-term
expectations.”
November 2018The Ranger Fund was down 0.26%.
“Redbubble’s Thanksgiving trading results appear to have been weaker than market expectations, but
it continues to grow strongly.”
December 2018The Ranger Fund was down 2.28%.
“Redbubble continued to weaken after recent bad news.”
December 2019The Ranger Fund was down 0.69%.
“The principle detractor was the fund’s holding in Redbubble, the on-line marketplace for independent
artists. The company issued a disappointing revenue update in the December quarter and its share
price subsequently fell over 40%. Redbubble is an early stage business, and its share price is
particularly sensitive to news.”
