Global Equity Update: Collaboration, Diversification, and Staying in the Middle of the Net | EP 201

Paul Moroz returns to share an update on our global equity strategy. We dig into what's changed since Paul resumed the lead portfolio manager role, how the team's collaboration has evolved, and why a more diversified and resilient portfolio is the result. Listen for Paul's take on why optionality and humility matter more than ever.  Key highlights:  Enhanced team collaboration through structural changes leading to better cross-team idea generation  Improved portfolio diversification with holdings expanding to over 70 securities: reduction of consumer staples and discretionary overweights, while adding strategic small positions that provide optionality for rapid capital allocation as markets shift  Fundamental momentum alignment improved by reducing problem positions and increasing strong earnings momentum names, resulting in better down capture characteristics during market declines  Strategic AI complex exposure built through diversified Asian infrastructure plays in memory, power, data centers, and chip fabrication, targeting high market share businesses with better risk-adjusted returns  Comprehensive IT sector review underway to identify opportunities in potentially mispriced software companies  Portfolio repositioning complete with approximately 19% turnover executed to create a more balanced, diversified portfolio aligned with the platform's investment philosophy: designed for resilience across market regimes    Host: Rob Campbell, CFA – Institutional Portfolio Manager Guest: Paul Moroz, CFA – Portfolio Manager   This episode is available for download anywhere you get your podcasts.
