Q2 2025 Fund Commentary

Market commentary

U.S. equity markets rose in the second quarter of 2025 with growth stocks posting strong returns. The quarter began with volatility following the U.S. administration’s announcement of tariffs on nearly all imports, which led to sharp losses for U.S. equities. However, stocks reversed course after a 90-day pause on certain tariffs to most countries was announced. In addition, first-quarter corporate earnings results and outlook statements were better than expected and macroeconomic fundamentals remained steady.

Performance

The Fund’s relative overweight exposure to Broadcom Inc. and Howmet Aerospace Inc. was positive for performance. Underweight exposure to Apple Inc. was also positive for the Fund’s performance. Relative overweight exposure to Copart Inc. was negative for the Fund’s performance.

At the sector level, stock selection in consumer discretionary and communication services was positive for the Fund’s performance. Underweight exposure to the poorly performing consumer staples sector was positive for performance. Stock selection in financials and information technology was negative for the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s cash allocation was negative for performance given outperformance by U.S. equities.

Portfolio activity

The sub-advisor added Vulcan Materials Co. to the Fund and increased existing holdings in The Progressive Corp. and CoStar Group Inc. Analog Devices Inc. and McCormick & Co. Inc. were sold. Apple was reduced.

Outlook

Uncertainty continues to surround the U.S. administration’s tariff policies but the U.S. economy was resilient, with U.S. equities rising to all-time highs in June. Still, the labour market is expected to soften, consumer sentiment remains fragile and proposed tariffs could reintroduce inflation, in the sub-advisor's view. Therefore, the sub-advisor expects volatility to continue.

The sub-advisor sees structurally positive and multi-year trends that should drive sustained growth for many businesses. More broadly, the sub-advisor believes that innovation is likely to come from traditional growth sectors in the next five years. These sectors include information technology, health care, consumer discretionary and industrials, which make up over 70% of the Fund.

The Fund’s active weights remain tight in order to reduce unintended factor risks and accentuate stock-specific risk. Currently, the Fund remains within +/-5% of all sectors. The Fund’s largest exposure is to information technology, but it is an underweight exposure compared to the benchmark. The Fund has underweight exposure to consumer staples and no weighting in energy or utilities.
