This approach is viewed as offering resilience amid continuing inflation and uncertain macroeconomic conditions. Healthcare led all sectors in the fourth quarter after being beaten down for much of the year. The fund remains keen on healthcare stocks, particularly those in the healthcare equipment and supplies industry, because they are attractively valued and demand tends to be less susceptible to changes in the economic environment. The fund's investment objective focuses on current income and long-term capital growth, with a strategy of investing in companies believed to be undervalued. The portfolio positioning emphasizes income generation through dividend-paying stocks and preferred securities. | View | |

The manager believes AI has potential to impact every sector over time, driving productivity gains and business model innovation across a much broader range of industries than currently appreciated by investors. Value stocks outperformed growth stocks in Q4 as high market valuations for growth stocks create attractive risk/reward potential in value stocks. The manager expects the current market environment to continue favoring value stocks given elevated growth stock valuations and relatively benign economic backdrop. Strong growth in distribution and power systems segments driven by data center demand, with companies like Cummins benefiting from robust sales results. Data center demand is supporting performance across multiple portfolio holdings. | WM HD WDC |
