| 2025 Q4 | Jan 24, 2026 | Miller Howard Investments Income-Equity Strategies | 15.6% | 15.6% | ABBV, C, COP, CSCO, EMN, ETR, GILD, GPS, GSK, HRB, HRL, JEF, JNJ, JPM, MPLX, MTB, PAYX, RF, STT, VICI, VZ | AI, dividends, income, productivity, value | AI represents a transformative technology that could drive step-change improvements in economic productivity. The manager believes AI's greatest impact will come from companies using it as an input to improve operations rather than those selling AI products. Many dividend-paying companies in labor-intensive industries could benefit significantly from AI adoption through process automation and efficiency gains. The portfolio focuses on high dividend yields approximately 3x the S&P 500, with strong dividend coverage ratios and projected dividend growth. Six companies increased dividends in the quarter, led by MPLX with a 13% increase. The strategy emphasizes collecting high and rising dividends while compounding real cash returns through disciplined reinvestment. The portfolio trades at significant discounts to the broad market, with P/E ratios 40-42% below the S&P 500. The manager believes many steady-growing companies are overlooked by markets focused on AI winners, creating opportunities in businesses with lower assumed margins and productivity that could benefit from AI adoption. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | ClearBridge Investment Value Strategy | 0.0% | 0.0% | 300750.SZ, ARGX, CELH, CHTR, CMA, CORT, FCX, FI, FITB, GPN, ICE, META, MTB, MU, NEM, OM, PYPL, SLGN, TLN, WBS | AI, financials, gold, healthcare, materials, semiconductors, technology, value | AI adoption is expected to broaden economic benefits in 2026, requiring justification of massive capital investment. The team sees opportunities in AI adoption across sectors where it's not currently priced, while maintaining exposure to AI-related infrastructure investments despite reducing exposure during volatility spikes. Value spreads remain at historic extremes with value stocks trading at the cheapest 10% of their history relative to growth. The team believes this creates a probability gap with meaningful upside potential for valuation-driven investors as the market prices value stocks as having little chance of leading. Memory chip demand driven by AI exceeded supply growth, creating price spikes that benefited holdings like Micron Technology. The team correctly anticipated AI would drive memory demand well above supply growth, positioning in picks-and-shovels AI infrastructure plays. Gold prices spiked higher than reflected in mining stock prices, benefiting Newmont Mining. The team has been long-term bullish on gold due to limited annual supply and new demand sources, creating opportunities to buy high-probability events at low-probability prices. | PYPL FITB |
