"Burke Wealth Management remains highly optimistic for 2026, viewing current AI infrastructure spending as fundamentally backed by immediate compute demand rather than speculative bubble dynamics, while actively reallocating capital from vulnerable software apps to platform giants and Alphabet."
Burke Wealth Management's Q4 2025 letter reports a solid close to a tumultuous year, with the Focused Growth Composite returning 2.0% for the quarter (+7.4% YTD) compared to the S&P 500's +2.7% (+17.9% YTD). PM Ken Burke outlines his thesis on why the AI revolution is not a dot-com-style bubble, pointing to real, current GPU capacity shortages rather than speculative overbuilds. During the quarter, the fund made notable changes: it re-entered Alphabet after regulatory fears abated; trimmed outperforming positions in ASML and BWXT to fund Alphabet; increased allocations to ServiceNow, Snowflake, and TransDigm; and completely exited long-time holdings Adobe (due to AI disintermediation risk) and Comcast (due to weak broadband trends). The fund remains optimistic about 2026, supported by Trump administration policies favoring domestic growth and deregulation.
