"The strategy underperformed its benchmark in Q3 2025 due to its positioning in the AI spectrum, but the managers aggressively restructured the portfolio by rotating capital out of threatened software/health care names and into high-conviction infrastructure, power, and diagnostics plays."
Executive Summary
In Q3 2025, the ClearBridge All Cap Growth Strategy underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 3000 Growth Index. Underperformance was largely driven by underweight positions in AI winners and exposure to perceived AI losers in the application software space. In response, the portfolio managers actively upgraded portfolio exposure. They initiated new positions in Oracle (cloud infrastructure) and Vistra (power generation for data centers), and bought molecular diagnostics firm Natera. Concurrently, they reduced technology exposure in areas vulnerable to AI disintermediation by selling Salesforce, Workday, and Accenture, and overhauled their health care positions by fully exiting UnitedHealth Group and Novo Nordisk. The team remains constructively balanced, aiming to secure upside while guarding against macroeconomic and geopolitical volatilities.
