  • “Portfolio Highlights The ClearBridge Appreciation Strategy underperformed the benchmark S&P 500 Index in the second quarter of 2026. On an absolute basis, the Strategy had positive contributions from eight of 11 sectors. The IT sector was the main positive contributor, while energy was the main detractor. In relative terms, stock selection and sector allocation detracted. Stock selection in IT, industrials, communication services, financials and consumer discretionary, overweights to materials and energy and an IT underweight detracted the most. Conversely, stock selection in materials and a consumer discretionary underweight were beneficial. On an individual stock basis, the biggest relative contributors during the quarter were ASML, Palo Alto Networks, ASM International, an underweight to Microsoft and not owning Palantir. The biggest detractors were Netflix, underweights to Micron Technology and Advanced Micro Devices, and not owning Intel and Applied Materials. During the quarter, we initiated new positions in SpaceX in communication services, Micron Technology, Cisco Systems, Advanced Micro Devices and Texas Instruments in IT and Diamondback Energy in energy.”

  • “1 Before we do that, let's talk about Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). We purchased our initial position in AMD in October 2022 at about $80 per share when the stock was depressed due to weak outlook for its end markets. As is often the case with the market, when it does not like a stock or a sector it discounts it severely and we were able to purchase a cyclical stock (yes, semiconductor stocks were cyclical then!) with a net-cash balance sheet at a depressed multiple of depressed earnings. Our investment was underpinned by our confidence in AMD's management team, its engineering culture, and its ability to consistently deliver competitive products. It turns out that CPU’s, AMD’s core product, are needed for Agentic AI! The stock took off earlier this year and is currently trading at above $500 per share. From our perspective, the upside we captured was not due to any attempt to predict AI’s trajectory, but simply the result of owning a quality company in a secularly growing sector, run by a strong management team at a sensible valuation. As we've said before, high-quality businesses possess optionality that simply isn't available to mediocre businesses and even as these businesses trade at higher multiples, this optionality is often undervalued. Today, the world can’t seem to buy enough semiconductor stocks, and AMD trades at a valuation that reflects a very optimistic consensus about its future. While those expectations may well prove accurate, forecasting that kind of trajectory is not our strength. For that reason, we’ve sold roughly three‑quarters of our AMD position.”

    “o Advanced Micro Devices: O/W The underweight position in Advanced Micro Devices was a significant detractor as the stock returned 186% over the quarter. The move was underpinned by strong first-quarter results and an accelerating forward guide, momentum behind the MI450 GPU launch and its marquee customer commitments, and an emerging thesis that server CPUs would be meaningful beneficiaries of rising AI inference workloads. We find AMD's valuation challenging relative to the higher-quality Nvidia, particularly given a weaker competitive advantage, and while we acknowledge that AMD's own fundamentals have genuinely accelerated, we view the scale of the re-rating as difficult to reconcile with fundamentals. We would review this underweight position at the right price.”

With the Russell 3000® Value Index outperforming the S&P 500® Index year to date, it may appear on the surface that value style investing is beating growth style investing this year. However, in our opinion, the performance this year is more of a reflection of a disconnect that we have touched on in prior commentaries, namely that Russell’s value indices are increasingly diverging from how value style investing is conventionally defined. Over the last few years, we have observed a number of stocks on multiple occasions with meaningful weight in the Russell 3000® Value Index that bear little resemblance to the classic value businesses we have bought and sold over time. Recent examples include Meta Platforms Inc (META), Micron Technology, Inc. (MU), Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD), and Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), among others.”

  • “Market Overview After a challenging first quarter that saw the S&P 500 Index decline 4.3%, markets rebounded sharply in the second quarter. The S&P 500 climbed 15.2%, driven by a surge in information technology (IT) stocks, particularly semiconductor stocks, which soared 44.0%. The ClearBridge Dividend Strategy rose nicely but lagged the exuberant gains of S&P 500 mainly due to our lower technology exposure. While no one likes to trail in sharp market rallies, diversified dividend growth portfolios tend to lag in these narrow, momentum driven markets. Our research shows, however, that these periods tend to be followed by periods of broader market participation in which diversified dividend-growth portfolios shine. Semiconductor memory stocks were the standout performers. Shares of Micron, the largest producer of storage chips, skyrocketed 240%, adding over $900 billion of market cap — more than the entire market capitalization of Exxon Mobil, Johnson & Johnson or JPMorgan Chase. Our underweight to Micron and a select group of other non-dividend- paying data center plays, like Advanced Micro Devices, Intel and SanDisk, were the largest drivers of our relative underperformance.”
    Advanced Micro Devices
  • “Performance commentary The fund outperformed its index over the quarter, which was the result of positive stock selection. The fund’s holdings in the technology sector made a particularly strong contribution to returns. Holdings in Micron, Samsung and TSMC continued to benefit from the tight market for semiconductor memory and surging manufacturing demand. The holding in Alphabet also proved beneficial. Shares in the owner of Google rose following the release of encouraging results, which also gave investors confidence about its direction of AI integration. On the downside, holdings that had previously benefited from rising tensions in the Middle East underperformed. Late Life Cycle energy companies, Shell and Suncor Energy, gave back some gains from the previous quarter, after agreement appeared to have been struck to end the US conflict with Iran and the ‘war premium’ in commodity prices faded. Despite the strong performances of the portfolio’s technology-related holdings, we retain an underweight position overall relative to the benchmark. Certain technology stocks that we don’t hold, such as Intel and Advanced Micro Devices, performed well and had a negative influence on relative returns.”
