| 2025 Q4 | Jan 18, 2026 | Mairs & Power – Small Cap Fund | 0.0% | 4.0% | ABT, AIR, BSY, CASY, CVRX, EXAS, INSP, KNF, MEDP, MGPI, NVT, WK | AI, earnings, healthcare, rates, small caps, technology, Valuations | AI and increasing market concentration took center stage in 2025, with the rate of investment in technology and AI infrastructure spending driving market narrative. McKinsey projects nearly $7 trillion in capital expenditures will be needed worldwide by 2030 to build up AI infrastructure. The managers believe they are entering a transition period for AI, with signals that the cycle is moving into a higher risk phase given the flood of capital and unusual financing structures. Small cap companies are showing their first signs of earnings growth recovery after three years of contraction, posting 13% growth in 2025. Small cap stocks are still trading at a significant discount to the S&P 500, which the managers believe presents an attractive opportunity for long-term investors. Lower interest rates, reduced corporate tax burdens, and regulatory relief could offer further support to small caps. The Federal Reserve cut rates in the fourth quarter with expectations for lower interest rates continuing into 2026. Lower rates should provide a tailwind to profitability for smaller companies and make it easier for them to find talent. Interest rate changes take time to work through the economy, typically around a year to feel the effects. | View | |
