“Charles Schwab Corporation (SCHW) (sold in the first quarter) and Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (NYSE:FIS) were the Fund’s primary annual detractors. FIS has been a rare “triple-crown” loser (2021, 2022, and 2023). At the risk of sounding like a broken record, we think the stock’s setup is much improved from today’s rebased price levels.”
