"Westfield trimmed AI exposure after semiconductors hit technical extremes, rotating into Healthcare, Industrials, and Financials. Healthcare offers compelling value with earnings inflection and $1.4 trillion pharma M&A firepower."
Westfield Capital Management's Q2 2026 market views highlight a quarter of extremes: equities posted their strongest performance in six years, driven by AI infrastructure spending and broad-based earnings growth across all sectors. However, the rally was characterized by unprecedented sector rotation—Energy to Technology—and extreme momentum concentration, with semiconductors reaching technical extremes at 1.6x their 200-day average. The firm has trimmed AI exposure due to rising capex risk and sentiment stretch, while adding to Healthcare, Industrials, and Financials. Healthcare presents compelling opportunity with attractive valuations, earnings inflection, and $1.4 trillion in pharma M&A firepower. Small caps outperformed the Mag 7 by 24% year-to-date, though Q2 was challenging for active managers as low-quality, unprofitable names led. Westfield sees the current environment favoring selectivity and balance, with stock correlations at eight-year lows creating tailwinds for active management. Key risks include AI commoditization, momentum extremes, retail speculation through levered ETFs, and large-cap concentration at all-time highs. The firm favors rotation into laggards with strong fundamentals over extended mega-cap technology.
