"Harbor Capital Appreciation underperformed its benchmark in Q3 2025 with a 5.11% return. Active moves included adding AMD, Toast, and Oracle, while fully exiting Trade Desk, Texas Instruments, and Airbnb."
During Q3 2025, the Harbor Capital Appreciation Fund (Institutional Class) returned 5.11%, underperforming the Russell 1000 Growth Index benchmark return of 10.51%. Relative performance was detracted by an underweight to Information Technology and weak security selection in Communication Services, Health Care, and Consumer Discretionary. Portfolio activity featured three new positions (Advanced Micro Devices, Toast, Oracle) and three complete exits (Trade Desk, Texas Instruments, Airbnb). Despite near-term policy and valuation headwinds, the manager remains constructive on the long-term secular growth driven by AI and cloud infrastructure, adhering to a fundamentally-driven, bottom-up stock selection process.
