Quick Take
"The RS Large Cap Value Strategy gained 5.77% net in Q4 2025, beating its benchmark, and highlights a high-conviction environment for active value-oriented stock picking amidst extreme AI-driven market concentration."
Executive Summary
For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, the RS Large Cap Value Strategy delivered a 5.77% net return, outperforming the benchmark Russell 1000 Value Index's 3.81%. Performance was buoyed by stock selection in Health Care and Financials. The wider market advanced on the back of Federal Reserve rate cuts and AI enthusiasm, despite a cooling labor market. The team views the resulting market concentration as an attractive backdrop for active value stock pickers, identifying deep value discounts in companies with strong ROIC improvement profiles like Sealed Air (subject to a pending buyout) and Eaton Corp (positioned to benefit from grid electrification).
