Ashva Capital Management, an investment management company, released its Q2 2026 investor letter. A copy of the letter can be downloaded here. Ashva Capital LP generated a 23.1% net return through June 30, 2026, compared to a 9.6% gain for the S&P 500 over the same period. In the first quarter, market volatility highlighted investment opportunities, leading to a swift repricing of high-quality companies. April reinforced the idea that returns are not linear, but, through disciplined investing, several high-conviction positions gained value as fundamentals improved. Despite concerns about high valuations, concentration, and geopolitical uncertainties, recent earnings reports for S&P 500 companies showed strong performance. The market isn't cheap, trading at about 20.0 times forward earnings, but strong fundamentals suggest continued positive momentum and growth expectations remain constructive for the coming quarters. Please review the Strategy's top five holdings to gain insights into their key selections for 2026.

Not that the memory cycle has disappeared - it has not.
The most obvious catalyst is artificial intelligence. In our Q1 letter, we described AI as both an opportunity and a threat. Our approach was selective: favor companies where AI strengthens the business model, expands the opportunity set, or is unlikely to impair the core economics.
