Perspectives

  • Keeping an Eye on Quality Through the Cycle
    Sustainability Leaders 4Q25: We are remaining valuation disciplined as we see pockets of excess in the valuations for stocks in the AI ecosystem, and we believe through-the-cycle performance favors quality-focused investing.
  • Results Improving Despite Low-Quality Market
    Sustainability Leaders 3Q25: We have observed improving relative results in 2025 compared to the prior two years, partly due to recent positioning moves.
  • Capitalizing When the Market Swoons
    Sustainability Leaders 2Q25: The April selloff produced attractive opportunities in high-quality long-term compounders that helped the Strategy outperform in the second quarter.
