Executive Summary
In Q4 2025, the Fidelity® Dividend Growth Fund achieved a 5.09% return, significantly outperforming its benchmark S&P 500 Index, which returned 2.66%. The fund's strong relative performance was primarily driven by stock selection in Information Technology, Industrials, and Communication Services. Alphabet and SK Hynix were key relative contributors, while an underweight in health care and holding Paycom Software detracted. Major overweights at year-end included Boeing, TSMC, and GE Vernova, while top underweights were Apple, Amazon, and Tesla.
