Q1 2025 Fund Commentary

Market commentary

U.S. equities fell and volatility increased during the first quarter of 2025 because of geopolitical and macroeconomic concerns. The release of artificial intelligence (AI) models developed by Chinese company DeepSeek led investors to question the outlook for AI spending. The U.S. administration’s tariff policy rollout had a negative impact on markets throughout the quarter.

Performance

The Fund’s overweight exposure to Howmet Aerospace Inc. and Mastercard Inc. was positive for performance, as was its underweight exposure to Alphabet Inc. Overweight exposure to Marvell Technology Inc., and Broadcom Inc. was negative for performance.

At the sector level, stock selection in communication services and financials had a positive impact on the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s cash position was also positive for performance as the market declined. Stock selection in information technology and health care was negative for performance, as was underweight exposure to health care.

Portfolio activity

The sub-advisor increased holdings in NVIDIA Corp., Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd. and Nasdaq Inc.

Booking Holdings Inc. was sold, while CoStar Group Inc., DraftKings Inc. and BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. were reduced.

Outlook

Given the geopolitical and economic backdrop, the sub-advisor believes many growth-oriented stocks could decline as new tariff policies are rolled out. The market disruption will likely differ by sector, but consumer discretionary and information technology could be the most negatively affected, in the sub-advisor’s view.

The sub-advisor focuses on identifying companies that can succeed in a variety of economic environments. At the end of the quarter, the Fund’s largest absolute sector exposure was to information technology, but it was underweight relative to the benchmark. The Fund also had relative underweight exposure to consumer staples and no exposure to energy or utilities.
