| 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 | |
