Baird Chautauqua International and Global Growth Funds’ Q4 2025 Investor Letter

Chautauqua Capital Management, a division of Baird Asset Management, is a boutique investment firm that released its fourth-quarter 2025 investor letter for the “Baird Chautauqua International and Global Growth Fund”. Global equities finished 2025 strongly, with international markets delivering their widest outperformance versus U.S. equities since the Global Financial Crisis, aided by a weaker dollar and improving trade conditions. In Q4 2025, the Baird Chautauqua International Growth Fund returned +0.11%, lagging the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. Index’s +5.05%, while the Global Growth Fund gained +4.18%, outperforming its MSCI ACWI Index® ND’s +3.29%, as value and cyclical leadership weighed on growth-oriented portfolios. Despite near-term headwinds from sector rotations and Greater China profit-taking, the fund remains focused on high-quality businesses with strong cash flows and balance sheets, supported by attractive international valuations and a more favorable macro backdrop heading into 2026.
