| 2025 Q4 | Mar 6, 2026 | Polen Capital – U.S. SMID Company Growth | -0.3% | 27.7% | BE, CORT, FSLR, NTNX, NVDA, RKLB, WDC | aerospace, AI, Biotechnology, Electrification, growth, innovation, SMID Cap | AI has been the defining theme of market leadership in 2025, driving surge in data center capex and benefiting AI-adjacent industries like semiconductors, electrical equipment, and tech hardware. AI data centers require enormous amounts of power, creating demand for solutions like Bloom Energy's fuel cells. The theme reasserted dominance after NVIDIA's strong earnings in late November. Portfolio maintains largest absolute and relative exposure to Industrials sector representing conviction in Electrification theme. This includes companies like Bloom Energy providing power solutions for AI data centers and First Solar manufacturing solar panels. The theme benefits from energy transition and infrastructure needs. Portfolio maintains significant conviction in Aerospace theme alongside Electrification within Industrials sector exposure. Rocket Lab operates as end-to-end space company developing rocket launch and control systems, with strong earnings results and growing backlog during the quarter. Biotech delivered its best quarter in five years driven by improving rate environment, easing regulation enabling more M&A, and excitement around AI's promise in drug discovery efficiency. Corcept Therapeutics represents exposure to this theme with drugs modulating cortisol activity and expanding pipeline in oncology. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Feb 23, 2026 | Bailard Technology Strategy | -2.2% | 19.2% | ADBE, AMZN, CRM, DDOG, GOOGL, HUBS, KLAC, LRCX, META, MNDY, MSFT, MU, NOW, NTNX, NVDA, QCOM, SAP, TEAM, TSM, WD | AI, growth, infrastructure, positioning, semiconductors, software, technology | The AI infrastructure cycle has mirrored cloud computing build-out with hyperscalers aggressively financing GPU and data center deployments. The focus is shifting from building computational backbone to realizing value through software and application layers. AI agents are creating concerns about disrupting legacy software applications, but incumbents can embed agents into existing systems to leverage proprietary data and customer relationships. The AI build-out is causing extremely tight supply for memory chips, benefiting companies like Micron that supply memory chips and equipment manufacturers like Lam Research and KLA that manufacture wafer equipment needed to expand the supply chain. The semiconductor complex is expected to remain fundamentally strong with potential for further acceleration in specific verticals. Software sector demonstrated resilient but normalizing revenue growth with highly bifurcated results. High-growth leaders maintained 25-30% growth while enterprise stalwarts sustained low-20% growth. Software valuations faced pressure due to fears that AI agents might disrupt legacy feature-heavy applications, creating a selective opportunity to own high-quality firms at a discount. Hyperscalers have aggressively financed massive deployments of GPUs and data center capacity using robust internal cash flows. Energy availability is becoming the constraining factor on datacenter growth, and the nature of AI investment is evolving toward more complex financing structures including alternative financing and circular financing arrangements. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 21, 2026 | Renaissance Investment Management – Large Cap Growth | 0.0% | 0.0% | AMAT, BRO, BSX, CAH, FISV, FIX, GOOGL, LRCX, MSI, NFLX, NTNX, PEGA, RCL, SCHW, TPR, UBER, WM | AI, Equal Weight, growth, large cap, Mega Cap, semiconductors, technology, valuation | AI remains a key driver with mega-cap technology stocks leading market performance. Alphabet released Gemini 3 with performance exceeding expectations, making it the top-performing AI model, and unveiled new Tensor Processing Units for lower-cost AI computations. Applied Materials benefits from strong demand for AI semiconductor chipsets. Semiconductor equipment companies like Lam Research and Applied Materials are benefiting from secular tailwinds including transition to larger chip sizes and increased complexity in chip manufacturing to accommodate AI applications. The CHIPS Act provides federal stimulus supporting the sector. Market valuations have risen significantly with the cap-weighted S&P 500 P/E rising almost 60% over three years versus 30% for equal-weighted. The extreme valuation difference between mega-cap and equal-weighted stocks suggests better relative performance going forward from equal-weighted strategies. | NFLX AMAT GOOG |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | GROW Funds LLC | 0.0% | 0.0% | AMZN, AXSM, CSCO, FENC, GENI, GOOGL, INDV, MAMA, MDXH, META, MSFT, NPCE, NTNX, NVDA, ORCL, SEMR, XERS | AI, Biotechnology, growth, healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, Rate Cuts, small caps, valuation | The fund has rotated to an overweight position in healthcare, viewing it as both offensive and defensive. Healthcare companies offer new products addressing large market opportunities while being nondiscretionary and less economically sensitive. Pharmaceuticals are particularly emphasized for novel therapies targeting large markets. The manager discusses the massive AI infrastructure investments by tech giants like Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Google, totaling hundreds of billions. However, they express skepticism about returns, comparing current partnerships to the telecom boom and dot-com era, preferring companies that use AI to improve business models rather than pure AI infrastructure plays. The fund focuses on small-cap growth companies, noting that small companies have historically outperformed during rate cutting cycles. They highlight a valuation discrepancy where small caps trade at 15x earnings versus the S&P 500 at 22x, presenting opportunities for active stock selection. | MDXH AXSM MAMA |
