Quality Equity

Overview

GMO’s Quality team generally seeks to win by investing in great companies under temporary clouds and in companies where the quality is improving in a way the market has not fully appreciated. Today, various reopening stocks with a Covid-19 overhang are examples of the former, and the transformed semiconductor industry provides examples of the latter. In addition, Quality investing with a valuation component wins over the long run by protecting on the downside, and we believe the strategy is well positioned for some of the potential headwinds for equities that exist today.
