"Fidelity Growth Strategies Fund slightly outperformed its benchmark in Q4 (-3.44% vs -3.70%), propelled by strong selections in AI-focused tech hardware, and enters 2026 with a constructive outlook supported by ongoing rate cuts."
For Q4 2025, the Fidelity Growth Strategies Fund returned -3.44%, slightly outperforming its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index, which returned -3.70%. The outperformance was primarily driven by stock selection in Information Technology, specifically non-benchmark tech hardware holdings like Coherent and Lumentum Holdings. Conversely, the largest relative detractor was Axon Enterprise. The fund ended the year heavily overweight in Industrials (34.16% vs. 20.92% benchmark), specifically favoring positive-cash-flow 'picks-and-shovels' businesses enabling the AI build-out. Heading into 2026, the manager holds a constructive view on U.S. and global business cycles, supported by anticipated monetary easing and fiscal policy tailwinds, while carefully monitoring sticky services inflation and elevated valuations.
