Banks face headwinds from inverted yield curve but benefit from Fed rate cuts steepening the curve and loan repricing tailwinds. Recent credit quality concerns have led to reduced sector exposure.

While improving America's trade positioning is legitimate, broad-based tariffs on nearly all global imports with limited warning creates unnecessary risk. The manager believes these tariffs will ultimately be short-lived based on market interpretation of events.	VRTS	View

Just seven mega-cap U.S. tech stocks drove nearly 60% of the S&P 500 gains in 2025 to date. The frothy valuations in the AI tech sector should make investors cautious, as concentrated indices could face material correction if the AI boom busts.		View
