"Janus Henderson Forty Fund delivered a strong Q2 2025 return of 19.34%, outperforming its benchmark through tactical additions to AI-infrastructure leaders and a growing focus on the AI application layer."
During Q2 2025, the Janus Henderson Forty Fund returned 19.34%, outperforming the Russell 1000 Growth Index's 17.84%. Relative performance was driven by stock selection in the technology and industrials sectors. Key contributors included Oracle, Broadcom, and Howmet Aerospace, all of which are riding secular AI infrastructure tailwinds. This performance offset detractors in healthcare (such as UnitedHealth Group, which faced Medicare Advantage headwinds) and financials (Mastercard). Portfolio managers remain constructive on the market, noting that trade policy fears have eased, while economic fundamentals and the rate-cut outlook remain supportive. The fund is actively focusing on the broader AI value chain and transitioning focus toward application-layer software companies starting to monetize AI across their customer bases.
