Rondure New World + Overseas Fund EM Stock Holdings (Mid-2023)
A closer look at almost 100 individual emerging market stock holdings of the Rondure New World Fund (MUTF: RNWOX / RNWIX) and the Rondure Overseas Fund (MUTF: ROSOX / ROSIX).
Rondure Global Advisors is a woman-owned investment adviser headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, who manages two international or emerging market mutual funds: Rondure New World Fund (MUTF: RNWOX / RNWIX) and Rondure Overseas Fund (MUTF: ROSOX / ROSIX).
Many of the emerging market stock holdings for both funds (almost 100 individual stocks…) have been covered in our Tuesday EM Fund Stock Picks & Country Commentaries posts. Therefore, its worth taking some time to take a detailed look at each of these holdings as some individual ones might be a good fit for your portfolio.
So-called emerging market countries where either or both funds are invested in (excluding developed countries like Japan which will not be covered later in this post) include:
Asia - SE Asia: Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand & Vietnam
Asia - South Asia: India
Asia - Middle East: Qatar
Latin America: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico & Uruguay
One thing that I noticed about both funds is the unusually high number of SE Asian stocks as holdings or a percentage of total holdings. As discussed in past Tuesday posts, most international investors seem to avoid the region or view it as a value trap (and fluctuating currencies don’t help either…).
The focus of this post will not be on the funds themselves; but for reference, here is a look at the long term performance of both:

Note: As of last week when I started writing this post, the fund website only had their holdings as of June 30th (and since this post covers almost emerging market 100 stocks, it took a little longer than expected to write this post). It looks like they have subsequently updated the fund holdings pages to the end of July:
Rondure New World Fund (MUTF: RNWOX / RNWIX): FULL HOLDINGS as of 07/31/2023
Rondure Overseas Fund (MUTF: ROSOX / ROSIX): FULL HOLDINGS as of 07/31/2023
