Pershing Square Holdings (self) PSH.NA / PSHD.LN
The three reasons
- 1
PSH trades at a 30% discount to NAV despite 22.9% 7-year compound NAV returns
- 2
Portfolio companies UMG, BAM, and QSR pursuing U.S. index inclusion to unlock passive demand
- 3
PSCM stake sale and PSUS IPO fee-offset will materially reduce PSH performance fees over time
Primary demands
- Close PSH's ~30% discount to NAV via continued strong investment performance and corporate actions
- Pursue U.S. index inclusion for portfolio companies (UMG, BAM, QSR) to attract passive demand
- Reduce PSH performance fees via PSCM stake sale proceeds and PSUS IPO fee-offset arrangement
- Continue share buybacks and dividend growth to support shareholder returns

Notes
Not a contrarian thesis against a target company — this is Pershing Square Holdings' own annual investor presentation covering fund performance, governance (board, fees), strategic initiatives (PSCM stake sale, PSUS IPO postponement, Howard Hughes transaction), and individual portfolio position updates (UMG, GOOG, BN, QSR, CMG, NKE, UBER, Hilton, CPKC, Fannie/Freddie). The closest thing to a contrarian argument is the S&P 500 concentration/valuation-dislocation narrative (p32-37) used to justify PSH's stock-picker edge, and the peer-discount framing for QSR (p52) and BN (p49-50). Campaign phase set to 'unknown' because this is an annual fund update, not a single-target activist campaign. Target_company set to PSH itself since the deck's primary ask is to close PSH's discount to NAV.
