Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector contributed to the fund’s relative performance in the quarter, while selection in healthcare detracted. Stocks declined in the quarter as the uncertainty over tariffs and other Trump administration policies dampened the optimism that had driven momentum in the fourth quarter of 2024.
