Mark Massey's Hedge Fund AltaRock on Domino's, Mohawk Industries, & Carter's

Today we present an update from Mark Massey's hedge fund AltaRock. Since his inception as portfolio manager, Massey has seen a compound annual growth rate of 11.9%. And through the end of July, AltaRock was up 17.6% net for the year. While that obviously doesn't include the August volatility, it's certainly impressive.

Last year we posted up AltaRock's investing principles and received a ton of positive reader feedback about the piece. Since their letter was theoretical and practical in nature, the one question readers kept asking was: what are they invested in and why? Clearly everyone wanted to see these principles in practice.

Well today we're happy to share AltaRock's mid-year 2011 letter which walks you through their rationale with very in-depth write-ups on the following new additions to their portfolio: Domino's Pizza (DPZ), Mohawk Industries (MHK), and Carter's (CRI).

Massey writes that, "we invest with the mindset of a long-term business owner, and we seek superior businesses with durable competitive advantages."
