Barron’s Live “What to Watch in the Markets” Podcast with Buffalo Small Cap Fund PM Jamie Cuellar

Overview

Buffalo Small Cap Fund co-portfolio manager Jamie Cuellar recently appeared on the Barron’s Live “What to Watch in the Markets” podcast.

During the segment, Jamie discusses where we are at in the small cap cycle, including valuation factors, and highlights several macroeconomic trends core to the Buffalo Funds investment philosophy — increasing demand for communications bandwidth and the rise of diagnostic and precision medicine. In the context of the discussion, Jamie also highlights several small cap companies taking advantage of these trends:

  • ADTRAN (NASDAQ: ADTN)
  • Bandwidth (NASDAQ: BAND)
  • Tenable (NASDAQ: TENB)
  • Castle Biosciences (NASDAQ: CSTL)

I think we’re very early in a multi-year cyclical upturn in communication spending, which is going to be great for communications equipment, optical systems and components, wireless equipment, and even communication semiconductors.

~ Jamie Cuellar, Co-Portfolio Manager, Buffalo Small Cap Fund

Riding Trends in Power Security, Orthopedic Products, and Wireless Towers

Buffalo Funds Discovery co-portfolio manager Dave Carlsen, CFA, was recently interviewed by The Wall Street Transcript where he discusses growth drivers for companies in several sectors, including power grid security, orthopedic products, and wireless towers. He also cites several examples of companies within the Fund’s portfolio that highlight the team’s investment strategy at work:

  • Generac Holdings (NYSE:GNRC)
  • Zimmer Biomet Holdings (NYSE:ZBH)
  • SBA Communications Corporation (NASDAQ:SBAC)
  • Medtronic PLC (NYSE:MDT)
  • T-Mobile US (NASDAQ:TMUS)

We think midcap companies strike the balance between being small enough to grow for an extended period of time, while also being established enough to avoid the business model disruption that can occur when the economy hits a soft patch. ~ Dave Carlsen, CFA, Co-Portfolio Manager, Buffalo Discovery Fund

“This Small-Cap Fund Is Performing Big”

“This Small-Cap Fund Is Performing Big”

“This Small-Cap Fund Is Performing Big”

Buffalo Small Cap Fund co-portfolio manager Jamie Cuellar, CFA, was recently featured in an article in Financial Advisor magazine, discussing the future growth potential of small cap stocks. Jamie also discusses growth vs value investing in small cap companies and why they have significantly outperformed value stocks in recent years.

I think more people are willing to step out on the risk curve given that interest rates are low and the economy is improving, and some people are rotating into small caps because of that. ~ Jamie Cuellar, CFA

The article also goes into the Small Cap Fund’s team approach to the companies held in the Fund, and Jamie identified several companies within the Fund’s portfolio that exemplify their investment philosophy:

  • Kornit Digital – KRNT (NASDAQ)
  • Bandwidth Inc. – BAND (NASDAQ)
  • ICF International – ICFI (NASDAQ)
