"The Columbia Seligman Global Technology Fund posted a strong 23.69% return in Q3 2025, outperforming its benchmark by over 11% due to successful stock selection in Lam Research and an off-benchmark win in Bloom Energy."
In Q3 2025, the Columbia Seligman Global Technology Fund (Institutional Class) returned 23.69%, significantly outperforming the MSCI World Information Technology Index's return of 12.30%. Stock selection within semiconductors and semiconductor equipment, coupled with an off-benchmark allocation to industrials (such as Bloom Energy), drove performance. The fund maintained underweight positions in NVIDIA and Apple, which slightly detracted from returns relative to the benchmark. Moving forward, the fund remains constructive on AI infrastructure and semiconductor equipment demand, while highlighting secular risks in traditional enterprise software, Fintech, and IT services due to generative AI disruption.
