"The fund navigated an AI-fueled growth-to-value rotation in Q4 by paring down data center supply chain exposure and reallocating capital into resilient automation and healthcare innovators."
Executive Summary
In Q4 2025, the American Century International Growth Fund faced headwinds from a market-wide value rotation driven by AI-related uncertainty. The fund experienced underperformance in its consumer discretionary and industrials holdings, notably Ferrari and BayCurrent (which was exited). However, performance was bolstered by health care gains (AstraZeneca, Galderma), financials (Societe Generale), and an underweight stance in communication services. Looking forward, the fund has reduced exposure to the data center supply chain while increasing conviction in factory automation, digital transformation, and health care innovation.
