Lahiru Lakmal/iStock via Getty Images At a glance Performance The Fund returned 2.02% and the Russell Midcap® Value Index returned 1.42%. Contributors/detractors Stock selection in the real estate and financials sectors contributed to relative performance, while stock selection in the information technology and consumer discretionary sectors detracted. Outlook We remain confident in our disciplined value investment approach even as we see potential sources of market volatility. Investment environment Mid-cap stocks rose on positive earnings news, Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cuts, continued strength in stocks with exposure to artificial intelligence (AI), and optimism that economic growth may prove stronger than anticipated. Given the protracted government shutdown, economic data was sparse except for company commentary and private investment surveys, which pointed to a slowly improving economic environment. While investors paid more attention to fundamentals relative to earlier in the year, we continued to see pockets of outperformance by lower-quality stocks, as non-earners continued to outperform. Portfolio review We were pleased with our outperformance during the quarter, that was driven partly by our position in Freeport-McMoRan. Shares of the copper and gold producer rallied in the quarter as both copper and gold prices soared. The company reached a favorable agreement with the Indonesian government, ceding some control of one of its projects in return for a long-term operating license. We believe the company remains well positioned to benefit from higher copper prices, given continued strong demand and constrained industry supply. However, we trimmed our position on strength. Kirby Corporation, another relative contributor, transports petroleum and petrochemical products. It also operates an engine overhaul business, which has seen strong growth due to the rapid buildout in U.S. data center capacity. After underperforming in the third quarter owing to weaker pe...

Federal Reserve Chair nominee Kevin Warsh wants to significantly shrink the US central bank’s $6.6 trillion balance sheet. He’ll probably need more than one term to do it, according to a top financial economist. Darrell Duffie , a professor at the Stanford School of Business and longtime adviser to the Fed, argues in a new paper that the central bank would need to undertake reforms — including an overhaul of bank liquidity requirements and a redesign of the payment system — if it wants to substantially reduce its footprint in financial markets without causing severe stress. Once Warsh is confirmed to the post by the US Senate, he could institute some of the reforms more or less right away, provided he has buy-in from his colleagues. Others could take up to five years, Duffie said, which would imply an effort extending beyond Warsh’s four-year term as chair. “That’s retooling the largest payment system in the world,” Duffie said Monday on a call with reporters about just one of several steps he’s proposing. “You’re not just going to write a few lines of code and then insert them back into the system and hope that it works. It’s going to be a lot of testing.” In a paper published Wednesday by the Brookings Institution, Duffie outlined a set of four proposals the Fed could adopt to reduce bank demand for cash reserves held in accounts at the central bank. At the moment, banks have about $3 trillion parked at the Fed, partly to satisfy liquidity regulations imposed on them after the 2008 financial crisis. Fed officials have embraced the setup because it also offers a simpler way to control short-term interest rates. Warsh Pick President Donald Trump, during his search for a new Fed chair, said a desire to immediately lower rates would be a litmus test for his pick. Warsh, who ended up getting the nod, has argued that reducing the central bank’s balance sheet would pave the way for cuts. But he’s provided few details on how he might do that. The Trump-appointed Fed Vice ...

The artificial intelligence (AI) boom has sent investors scrambling to find the market's biggest long-term winners. But not all AI investments offer the same risk-reward profiles. For instance, while some high-flying infrastructure companies remain deeply unprofitable, other established tech giants are queitly integrated AI into their existing products and services. Even more, some AI stocks simply look like better long-term bets than others, both in terms of their business durability and their valuations. And those are the ones I want to gravitate to. Here is a closer look at one AI stock I am avoiding right now, and one I absolutely love. Continue reading
