Broyhill Asset Management made the following comment about Fomento Económico Mexicano, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE:FMX) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:

"The portfolio’s largest contributors to performance were Fomento Económico Mexicano, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE:FMX), Fiserv Inc. (FI), and McKesson Corporation (MCK). We are constantly amazed at how quickly sentiment swings from one extreme to the other, seemingly turning on a dime or on a single headline. Management at Fomento Economico Mexicano orchestrated a similar U-turn in sentiment when the company announced the results of its eagerly anticipated strategic review. Simply by selling off a few non-core assets and a single public investment, the company was able to convince investors to remove the “complexity discount,” and the gap between the stock’s price and its intrinsic value closed."
