A $114 billion asset manager is betting a significant portion of its capital on two under-the-radar stocks while increasing allocations in three other names.

The latest data from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) shows that WCM Investment Management has allocated $4.11 billion to buy over 25 million shares of Sea Limited (SE).
