"The fund is constructive on resilient macroeconomic tailwinds and secular AI trends, but is actively shifting capital away from overvalued speculative infrastructure names into high-quality, reasonably valued 'AI adopters'."
In Q3 2025, small-cap stocks extended their upward momentum, with the Russell 2000 Growth Index rising 12.19%. Carillon Eagle Small Cap Growth Fund remains constructive on the macroeconomic environment, citing Fed rate cuts, stabilizing inflation, and strong secular themes such as AI infrastructure, grid investments, and aerospace aftermarket activity as core tailwinds. Despite the strong market performance, the managers caution against speculative froth in high-multiple AI infrastructure stocks, choosing to shift focus toward 'AI adopter' companies trading at reasonable valuations. The letter details solid execution among top holdings like Rambus, Impinj, and Powell Industries, while addressing temporary setbacks in bottom holdings like Shake Shack, Monday.com, and Lantheus.
