Markets are nervous about wholesale reworking of global trade landscape affecting historical allies like Taiwan. Companies are preemptively announcing US investments to avoid tariffs. | View | |
| 2025 Q4 | Jan 27, 2026 | Diamond Hill Small-Mid Cap Strategy | 1.2% | 8.5% | AMH, ARE, BAH, CCS, CIEN, CUBE, GIS, GTES, HII, HLIO, IAC, LEA, PRGO, SBAC, UDR, WCC, WIX, WLK, WNS | defense, healthcare, industrials, mid cap, real estate, small cap, technology, value | The portfolio faced headwinds from AI-driven market exuberance creating momentum-driven rallies favoring lower-quality businesses. However, some holdings like Ciena benefited from hyperscaler and AI-related demand optimism. The managers express caution about AI bubble concerns emerging in December. WESCO International's data center business reached nearly 20% of total revenue and drove better-than-expected organic growth. The rapid expansion of this segment was a key contributor to the company's outperformance during the quarter. Huntington Ingalls Industries benefited from strong execution, new frigate contract awards, and discussion of a potential Trump-class battleship. Booz Allen Hamilton faced pressure from Department of Government Efficiency initiatives but remains well-positioned given differentiated technology capabilities and sustained government demand. The portfolio includes exposure to various real estate segments including self-storage (CubeSmart facing occupancy pressures), wireless tower infrastructure (SBA Communications), life sciences real estate (Alexandria Real Estate), and single-family rentals (Invitation Homes). The sector faces headwinds from higher interest rates and housing market challenges. | INVH ARE BAH SBAC CUBE GTES HII WCC CIEN ZTS HII |

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 15, 2026 | Columbia Dividend Opportunity Fund | 2.8% | 15.9% | ABBV, ALB, BAC, BLK, BRX, C, CSCO, DRI, GOOGL, GPC, GPS, GS, HD, IBM, IP, JNJ, JPM, LUV, MCD, MO, MRK, MU, PM, QRVO, SBUX, SWKS, T, UDR, XOM | AI, Banking, dividends, financials, Lithium, technology, value, Yield | The fund focuses on companies with historically consistent and increasing dividends, though dividend stocks generally underperformed during the quarter as investors favored speculative companies over defensive characteristics. The manager maintains a positive view on dividend-paying stocks as an out-of-favor segment largely devoid of speculative activity. The market remained supported by ongoing enthusiasm about the artificial intelligence theme, though there was a brief stretch of concern in November about a possible AI bubble. The manager sees potential for improved relative performance if excitement surrounding AI begins to cool. The quarter was characterized by broadening market leadership away from mega-cap technology companies, contributing to relative strength in the value style. The fund's investment universe offers fundamentally sound companies trading with attractive yields and reasonable valuations. A new position in mandatory convertible securities of lithium producer Albermarle made a sizable contribution as lithium prices rose due to reduced supply from China, and market participants became more optimistic about the metal's potential use in energy storage applications. | View | |
| 2024 Q2 | Jul 26, 2024 | Diamond Hill Small-Mid Cap Strategy | 8.4% | 9.2% | ALGT, BKU, COOP, ENOV, FTRE, GDDY, GNRC, LH, MAA, MGY, RRR, RRX, SANM, SNV, UDR, VRSN, WCC, WWW | financials, healthcare, industrials, real estate, small caps, technology, value | Apartment REITs Mid-America Apartment Communities and UDR benefited from stronger than expected rents and occupancy rates, positioning them well for peak leasing season. The portfolio's above-benchmark exposure to real estate contributed positively to relative performance as the sector outperformed the broad index. | View | |
| 2024 Q2 | Jul 26, 2024 | Diamond Hill Mid Cap | 8.3% | 13.3% | ADM, BSX, CIVI, ENOV, GDDY, GNRC, HUM, LH, MAA, NXPI, PH, RRR, RRX, SYY, UDR, VRSN, WCC | AI, mid cap, Quality, technology, value | AI-related stocks have driven increasingly narrow market performance, with a small number of massive technology stocks driving the majority of index returns. This creates opportunities for active managers to add value by avoiding the temptations of following trends and maintaining disciplined fundamental approaches. The concentration in AI stocks affords opportunities to identify high-quality, underappreciated companies outside the obvious front lines of the latest fad. | View | |
