"The Aristotle/Saul Global Equity Fund posted a 3.28% return in Q4 2025, closely matching global indexes. The fund actively rotated its portfolio, exiting underperforming positions in FMC and Nidec to establish positions in Itochu and Lowe's."
In Q4 2025, the Aristotle/Saul Global Equity Fund posted a 3.28% return, slightly underperforming the MSCI ACWI Index (3.29%) but outperforming the MSCI World Index (3.12%). The macroeconomic environment was defined by resilient U.S. GDP growth of 4.3% in Q3, a cautious Federal Reserve implementing two 25bps interest rate cuts, and emerging downside risks regarding 2026 growth due to upcoming tariff policies. During the quarter, the fund experienced positive performance contributions from Erste Group Bank and FANUC, while Uber and Sony detracted. In portfolio activity, the fund exited positions in FMC and Nidec, citing heightened risk profiles and deteriorating return clarity, and purchased new positions in Itochu and Lowe's based on attractive valuations and quality business fundamentals.
