Baron FinTech Fund stated the following regarding Apollo Global Management, Inc. (NYSE:APO) in its Q1 2025 investor letter:

“Shares of alternative asset manager Apollo Global Management, Inc. (NYSE:APO) detracted in the first quarter, largely stemming from a reversal in sentiment on the economy and capital markets activity. As mentioned above, alternative asset manager stocks performed well last year, especially after the November elections, on expectations of a recovery in capital markets activity fueled by deregulation and economic growth. Those expectations waned in the first quarter due to uncertainty and volatility around the Trump administration’s policy initiatives. As sentiment faded, alternative asset manager stocks gave back their post-election gains. We continue to own the stock due to Apollo’s differentiated focus on credit and strong management team.”
