Meridian Funds, managed by ArrowMark Partners, released its “Meridian Growth Fund” third-quarter 2025 investor letter. A copy of the letter can be downloaded here. Equities hit a record high in the third quarter, fueled by continued gains in technology and falling bond yields. Easing tariff rhetoric and renewed AI infrastructure investments boosted large tech stocks. In mid-September U.S. Federal Reserve lowered rates by 25 basis points. Against this backdrop, the fund returned -1.78% (net) compared to the Russell 2500 Growth Index’s 10.73% return. Sector positioning and the avoidance of names that do not meet the firm’s strict investment discipline led to the underperformance of the fund in the quarter.
