| 2025 Q4 | Feb 6, 2026 | Bailard International Equity Strategy | 5.5% | 34.9% | ASML, AZN.L, ROG.SW | AI, defense, EAFE, Geopolitical, gold, international, Korea, Utilities | AI advancements and record investments by U.S. tech giants dominated headlines. International markets benefited from AI infrastructure demand, with Korea's remarkable run fueled by AI/semiconductor exposures. Non-U.S. stocks are involved in secular themes including AI-required infrastructure. Utilities sector led EAFE sectors with +10.1% gains, boosted by surging power demand for data centers. The data center demand tailwind supported utility performance and drove infrastructure needs. Rhetoric of self-sufficiency and national security was a prevalent theme, as countries refocused attention on security capabilities and strategic alliances. Security spending represents one of the secular themes supporting non-U.S. equity growth. Precious metals led the surge with gold climbing 65% for the year, reaching record highs of $4,300/oz. Gold's continued rise may be reflecting concern about policy risks and geopolitical tensions. Silver was up 38% in December alone and soared over 150% for the year, demonstrating remarkable precious metals performance alongside gold as investors sought safe havens from escalating geopolitical risks. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Feb 5, 2026 | Richie Capital Group | 0.0% | 0.0% | 7203.T, 7974.T, AAPL, AMZN, AZN, BHP.AX, FMG.AX, GOOGL, HD, IBE.MC, LLY, META, MSFT, NFLX, NVDA, RHM.DE, RIO.AX, ROG.SW, SPOT, XRO.AX | AI, earnings, equities, fixed income, Global Markets, inflation, rates | AI stocks showed mixed performance with investor worries about high valuations offset by stellar quarterly earnings from AI-linked companies including Alphabet, NVIDIA and Microsoft. Semiconductor giants SK Hynix and TSMC posted record-high profits driven by accelerating AI adoption. However, concerns about an AI bubble created drag on global tech stocks in early December. The Fed cut interest rates at October and December meetings, bringing total reductions to three in 2025 and lowering the target range to 3.50%-3.75%. The Bank of Japan raised its key rate to a 30-year high at 0.75%. The ECB held rates steady despite elevated eurozone inflation remaining above the 2% target. U.S. inflation slowed to 2.7% in November from 3% in September. Eurozone inflation rose to 2.2% in November, remaining above the ECB's 2% target for three consecutive months. Japan's core inflation rose 3.0% in November, well above the central bank's 2% target. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Feb 4, 2026 | Aristotle International Equity Fund | 5.5% | 22.5% | 005930.KS, 5401.T, 6594.T, 6758.T, 6954.T, 7532.T, ALL.AX, BAP, BN, CCO, D05.SI, EBS.VI, EXPN.L, MUV2.DE, ROG.SW, SAF.PA | Asia, Automation, Banking, Europe, gaming, international, Quality, value | FANUC Corporation demonstrates leadership in factory automation and industrial robotics, with operating margins expanding to 21% and strong robot sales growth in China exceeding 80% year-over-year. The company maintains dominant positions in CNC systems and continues deepening competitive advantages through collaboration with NVIDIA on AI-driven robotics and digital twin capabilities. Aristocrat Leisure represents a compelling investment in the global gaming market with over 70% recurring revenue from slot machines and digital platforms. The company benefits from an oligopolistic industry structure and strong market positions across North American commercial and tribal gaming markets, supported by proprietary content franchises. Erste Group Bank delivered strong operating performance driven by healthy loan growth, resilient net interest income, and solid fee income across Central and Eastern European markets. The bank's diversified retail-oriented model and leading market positions support continued growth as regional economies develop and demand for financial services expands. The U.S.-China trade relationship showed improvement with a one-year trade truce reached at the APEC summit, reducing China's effective tariff rate to 47% and deferring export controls on rare earth materials. However, new tensions emerged with Japan over Taiwan, highlighting ongoing geopolitical complexities affecting global trade flows. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Feb 11, 2026 | Tweedy, Browne Value Fund | 4.8% | 21.6% | 005930.KS, BRK-A, CNHI, CVS.L, DHLG.DE, ENVB, FDX, GOOGL, HEIA.AS, IONS, JNJ, NESN.SW, NVST.SW, PRU.L, RMS.PA, ROG.SW, SAF.PA, TTE, U11.SI, WFC | defense, global, healthcare, industrials, international, Pharmaceuticals, technology, value | Health care holdings including pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies added meaningfully to returns. Holdings such as Roche, Novartis, and Ionis Pharmaceuticals benefited from new drug approvals, steady and growing earnings, and business models that continue to generate cash through a wide range of economic conditions. The fund continues to focus on financially sound enterprises purchased at attractive valuations where company stock prices are more than collateralized by underlying intrinsic value. The gap in valuation between US and non-US equities remains quite significant and should serve the fund well going forward. Defense-related holdings such as BAE Systems and Rheinmetall had been standout performers for much of the year but fell back in the 4th Quarter. While these businesses currently benefit from secular growth in defense spending around the world, share prices have moved ahead of underlying fundamentals. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Feb 11, 2026 | Tweedy, Browne Worldwide High Dividend | 2.4% | 21.7% | 005930.KS, BAE.L, CNHI, DHL.DE, GOOGL, IONS, J36.SI, KEMIRA.HE, MEGACPO.MX, NESN.SW, NOVN.SW, RB.PA, RHM.DE, ROG.SW, SAF.PA, TFC, TTE, U11.SI, USB, ZURN.SW | defense, dividends, global, industrials, Pharmaceuticals, value | Health care holdings including pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies added meaningfully to returns. Holdings such as Roche, Novartis, and Ionis Pharmaceuticals benefited from new drug approvals, steady and growing earnings, and business models that continue to generate cash through a wide range of economic conditions. The Worldwide High Dividend Yield Value Fund shared many attribution themes with a slightly different emphasis. Financials and industrials contributed meaningfully, consistent with the Fund's dividend-focused orientation. The fund maintains an average-weighted dividend yield on fund stocks of 3.94%. Defense-related holdings such as BAE Systems and Rheinmetall, which had been standout performers for much of the year, fell back a bit in the 4th Quarter. While these businesses currently benefit from secular growth in defense spending around the world, share prices have moved ahead of underlying fundamentals. The gap in valuation between US and non-US equities still remains quite significant and should serve us well going forward given the non-US-centric postures of our fund portfolios. We believe fervently that a diversified portfolio of well-capitalized, competitively advantaged companies purchased at attractive valuations offers the best defense against market uncertainty. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 26, 2026 | Brown Advisors Global Leaders Strategy | 0.0% | 15.2% | ADBE, ALLE, ASML, AZO, EFX, EXPN.L, GE, GOOG, ILMN, LSEG.L, MA, MRVL, MSFT, ROG.SW, RTO.L, TSM, V, WDAY, WKL.AS, ZTS | AI, Data, global, infrastructure, Quality, technology | AI is incredibly fast moving with innovations from DeepSeek in China to chain of experts and reasoning models becoming default standards. The potential for disruption in advertising, call centers and software is running way ahead of current adoption. Three or possibly four LLMs have pulled away from the pack with feedback loops from reasoning models creating one-sided network effects from scale. Credit bureau market is effectively an oligopoly with extremely high barriers to entry due to uniqueness and scale of data. Equifax and Experian provide critical data and analytics services across various sectors with distinct growth drivers in workforce solutions, healthcare, marketing and international markets. Strategy focuses on high-quality companies with superior customer outcomes that can pass on prices and generate high levels of recurring revenue while requiring low financial leverage. Many quality compounders that were historically unjustifiably expensive have become significantly more attractive over the past couple of years. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 23, 2026 | American Century International Growth Fund | 0.3% | 15.6% | 6758.T, 6954.T, 7532.T, AI.PA, AIR.PA, ASML, AZN, BABA, BVI.PA, GALDA.SW, GLE.PA, IBE.MC, RACE, REL.L, ROG.SW, SAP, SU.PA | AI, Automation, Europe, international, Japan, large cap, Pharmaceuticals | Artificial intelligence-related market uncertainty drove broad rotation into value and away from growth. While investment in data centers has created optimism, concerns persist about financing, supply chain and power constraints. Investors also continue to consider the impact of AI on traditional business models. Demand for AI-integrated processes and robotics has increased as businesses move to factory automation. Companies are poised to benefit from new applications in industries like agriculture. The fund initiated a position in FANUC, expecting revenue and earnings to accelerate as global automation demand grows. Companies in the pharmaceuticals industry have focused on new products in therapeutic areas with unmet needs, including cancer and skin conditions. These select companies with innovative product pipelines are positioned to benefit from an inflection in growth. The acceleration of digitalization is benefiting technology holdings exposed to cloud computing, automation, digital payments and IT services growth. Japan-based companies, in particular, are investing heavily to increase efficiency and profits as they seek to catch up with their international competitors. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 21, 2026 | Smead International Value Fund | 8.2% | 39.1% | BARC.L, BAWG.VI, BKT.MC, CVE.TO, GLEN.L, OXY, PNDORA.CO, ROG.SW, SCR.TO, TGA.JO, TVE.TO, UCG.MI, WFG.TO | banks, energy, Europe, oil, value | The fund employs a concentrated value approach focused on maximizing long-term returns. The managers contrast momentum investing (driven by stories and mythos) with value investing (analytical approach examining capital structure, returns on capital, and future growth). They believe value investing represents a more logical and analytical framework that will ultimately prevail. The managers challenge the mythos that American energy producers will drill regardless of price, noting that capex per rig has moved to higher levels coinciding with attractive entry points. They highlight that OPEC production increases have been muted relative to announcements, with Saudi Arabia being the only member capable of bringing back meaningful production at 2.1 million barrels per day. The fund sees Europe transitioning from mythos (over-regulated, poor decision-making) to logos (analytical capital allocation). European banks now believe they must earn their cost of capital and provide investor rewards through declining cost-to-income ratios, stock buybacks, and consolidation. Germany's removal of its debt brake for rearmament signals a future driven by returns and investment. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 20, 2026 | Harding Loevner International Equity | 4.2% | 27.6% | 005930.KS, 0700.HK, 1299.HK, 1398.HK, 2330.TW, 6758.T, ALC.SW, ALFA.ST, ALV.DE, ASML, ATCO-A.ST, BBVA, D05.SI, MELI, NTES, NVO, NVS, ROG.SW, SE, SU.PA | AI, defense, emerging markets, international, semiconductors, technology, Valuations | AI represents a capital-expenditure regime with two distinct camps: demand-side hyperscalers investing in compute capacity, and supply-side physical enablers spanning chip foundries, memory makers, and infrastructure providers. The portfolio holds companies across this ecosystem including TSMC, Samsung Electronics, ASML, and power management providers like Delta Electronics and Schneider Electric. The semiconductor ecosystem is central to AI buildout, with the portfolio holding foundries like TSMC, memory producers like Samsung Electronics, and equipment suppliers including ASML, Disco Corp, and Lasertec. These companies represent the physical enablers of AI infrastructure despite potential cyclical risks if AI capex slows. EM exposure increased to roughly 30% of the portfolio, the largest weight ever, driven by compressed valuations and opportunities in companies like CATL, Delta Electronics, Naver, and Tencent. The manager sees attractive risk-reward profiles in EM companies where fundamentals remain robust despite underperformance. Added BAE Systems amid broader European defense sell-off, capitalizing on sustained higher defense budgets in Europe and modernization push in the US. BAE's intellectual property, government relationships, and program execution track record support resilient profitability even through periods of restrained spending. Portfolio includes e-commerce operators MercadoLibre and Sea Limited, as well as Naver which is South Korea's second-largest e-commerce business. These companies benefit from AI-based targeting and automated ad-generation tools that can expand revenue opportunities and improve monetization. | BA LN 035420 KS |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 20, 2026 | Harding Loevner Global Equity | 1.9% | 12.7% | 0700.HK, 1299.HK, 2308.TW, 300124.SZ, 300760.SZ, 4519.T, 6758.T, 6861.T, ABBV, ACN, ADBE, ALFA.ST, AME, AMZN, APH, ASML, ATCO-A.ST, ATD.TO, ATKR, AVGO, BKNG, CME, COMP.L, CSGP, D05.SI, DE, DHR, DPLM.L, EFX, ELV, EPI-A.ST, FN, GMAB, GOOGL, HDFCBANK.NS, HEI, HLN.L, HON, JNJ, META, MSFT, NFLX, NOC, NVDA, PGR, ROG.SW, SAP, SGSN.SW, SHEL, SLB, SU.PA, TMO, TSM, TTD, TW, V, VRTX, WMMVY | AI, global, international, semiconductors, technology, value | AI represents a capital-expenditure regime with two distinct camps: hyperscalers investing in computing capacity and physical enablers of the buildout. The US market is more dependent on AI continuing to surprise to the upside due to richer valuations and concentrated exposure. Global semiconductor ecosystem enables AI buildout, spanning chip foundries, memory-chip makers, and equipment manufacturers. International markets are more heavily tilted toward this manufacturing and infrastructure provider segment. International markets trade at roughly half the multiples of US stocks, offering more attractive valuations. Non-US markets start from cheaper valuations and possess more diverse growth opportunities unrelated to AI. | GOOG |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 19, 2026 | EdgePoint Global Portfolio | 0.0% | 17.5% | ALFA.ST, LECO, ROG.SW, TMO | contrarian, global, Quality, Resilience, risk management, value, volatility | EdgePoint views volatility as a feature of the market, not a bug to be managed away. The firm capitalizes on volatility-driven fear and irrational investor behaviors like panic selling to buy great businesses from sellers who don't understand true value. During the April 2025 Liberation Day volatility spike, EdgePoint moved over a quarter of the Global Portfolio in six weeks, buying businesses at bargain prices. EdgePoint focuses on owning businesses resilient enough to grow through any macro environment and come out stronger. This resilience serves as their margin of safety when investment insights don't play out as expected. The firm believes resilient base businesses protect against permanent loss of capital even when proprietary insights take longer than expected or don't materialize. EdgePoint defines risk as permanent loss of capital rather than volatility. The firm maintains confidence to buy when others are selling during uncertain periods. During April 2025's market stress, EdgePoint experienced its largest dollar inflows in company history on the two worst down days, demonstrating strong investor risk appetite and alignment. | ALFVY RHHBY LII TMO |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | ClearBridge Investments International Growth ADR Strategy | 0.0% | 0.0% | 0700.HK, 8035.T, AZN.L, CLS.TO, EL.PA, ENR1.DE, GALD.SW, HEI.DE, III.L, ITX.MC, LIN, NVO, NWG.L, RACE, ROG.SW, RYA.L, SE, SIE.DE, SONY, TT, UCG.MI | AI, Asia, banks, Europe, growth, international, Pharmaceuticals, value | The Strategy saw strength in holdings supporting the buildout of AI workloads during the quarter, led by Siemens Energy (electrical equipment for data centers), Tokyo Electron (semiconductor equipment), and Celestica (cloud platform technology solutions). Data centers remain supportive for earnings revisions in industrial holdings. Health care was a focus of activity with repurchases of EssilorLuxottica and Galderma Group and addition of Roche. Roche reported positive Phase III data for giredestrant and fenebrutinib with peak sales opportunities of $5 billion each. The sector has been improving after U.S. policy pressures moderated. Increased non-U.S. defense spending is here to stay as NATO evolves from U.S. leadership to more European participation. There has been rebuilding of inventories in the European Union and efforts to maintain steady defense infrastructure supply. Japan has also increased defense spending under its new prime minister. Despite investor avoidance since COVID, Chinese innovation is rapid and happens at lower prices. The next five years will see companies consolidate and dominate higher value chain positions across pharmaceuticals, battery materials, solar energy and technology. Lower valuations and higher profitability make exposure necessary. Banks can benefit from funding AI and energy transitions through new profitable loans. Heidelberg Materials could see upside from implementing decarbonization technologies in cement production. The transition creates lending opportunities and operational improvements for industrial companies. Value has worked internationally because inexpensive stocks are direct beneficiaries of enormous stimulus measures in Germany, Europe and Japan. The Strategy increased structural growth exposure through European and U.K. banks where there is a step change in earnings. Bank valuations remain inexpensive with excess capital. | HEI GR ROG SW NWG LN AZN LN |

The memory division reported record third-quarter sales driven by AI demand. Tokyo Electron was added as a new position, benefiting from increasing semiconductor complexity across various end markets. MercadoLibre faced share price volatility reflecting a tug-of-war between accelerating revenue growth and concerns over short-term margin pressure from defending market share in Brazil. Despite disappointing performance, the manager sees substantial growth runway and disciplined long-term management. DSV shares rebounded after geopolitical pressure on global trade. Third-quarter results exceeded expectations with margin improvement and upgraded guidance on DB Schenker acquisition synergies. Management accelerated integration timeline with most savings expected within two years. Lundin Mining was added as a new position, described as a high-quality copper-focused miner with low-cost assets and strong production growth potential. The manager sees an improving demand-supply balance in copper with current valuation not accounting for company quality. | 2454 TT SALM NO 8035 JP LUN CN DSV 005930 KS TME |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | Baillie Gifford -International All Cap | - | 19.0% | 005930.KS, 3317.T, 4519.T, 6869.T, 8035.T, ASML, AUTO.L, DSV.CO, EXO.MI, GAW.L, MC.PA, MELI, NMET.DE, RMV.L, ROG.SW, TSM | AI, growth, healthcare, international, Luxury, Quality, semiconductors, technology | AI continues to drive robust demand for advanced chips, particularly benefiting TSMC and related semiconductor equipment companies. However, AI tools and functionality create uncertainty for online platforms like Rightmove and Autotrader, as markets take a cautious stance on potential position erosion or increased investment needs. The impact appears mixed across sectors with clear benefits for chip manufacturers but concerns for consumer-facing platforms. Semiconductor companies were among the most significant contributors to performance, driven by robust demand for advanced chips used in artificial intelligence. TSMC benefited from AI chip demand, Samsung was supported by improving memory market conditions particularly high bandwidth memory, and related equipment companies like ASML, Tokyo Electron and Chroma also performed well during the quarter. The portfolio maintains a structural bias towards high-quality growth businesses, though this created headwinds during the quarter as quality stocks underperformed the broader international market by a margin rarely seen in recent years. The manager emphasizes focus on exceptional businesses with durable competitive advantages, strong balance sheets, and compelling long-term growth opportunities. LVMH contributed positively to performance in the quarter, supported by improving trends in Asia and the resilience of its leading brands after a period of weaker demand for luxury goods. The recovery suggests stabilization in the luxury sector following previous weakness. | View | |

Technology-related industries showed strength, particularly in Northeast Asia and the U.S., where chip stocks rallied on AI optimism during the fourth quarter. The U.S. Federal Reserve cut its target rate 25 basis points in December. The Bank of Japan lifted its rate a quarter point while the ECB stood pat, creating rate differentials that played out in currency markets. | View |
