In the second quarter of 2025, Aristotle Atlantic Partners' Large Cap Growth Strategy delivered a performance of -18.63% gross of fees, outperforming the Russell 1000 Growth Index by 17.84% [1]. The strategy highlighted Antero Resources Corporation (NYSE:AR) as a stock of interest, noting its focus on natural gas and oil properties in the Appalachian Basin. Antero Resources Corporation's shares gained 31.81% over the last 52 weeks and have a market capitalization of $10.791 billion [1].
The strategy's underperformance can be attributed to various factors, including the delayed rollout of AI software and hardware strategy by Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), which could lengthen the handset upgrade cycle [1]. Additionally, Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) faces headwinds from China-related tariffs and continued uncertainty in the U.S. trade strategy with China [1]. Despite these challenges, the company remains a popular stock among hedge funds, with 159 portfolios holding shares at the end of the first quarter [1].
ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Portfolios also experienced mixed results in the second quarter. While the S&P 500 Index returned 10.9%, the Russell 1000 Growth Index outperformed with a 17.8% return [2]. The portfolio's underweight to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) and holdings in Netflix, Eaton (ETN), and Meta Platforms (META) contributed to its performance [2]. However, holdings in UnitedHealth Group (UNH), Thermo Fisher Scientific (TMO), and Visa (V) detracted from the portfolio's performance [2].
The second quarter highlights the importance of fundamental stock selection and managing concentration and industry risk. While the S&P 500 Index has shown signs of broadening, the Russell 1000 Growth Index remains dominated by its eight $1 trillion+ market cap components [2]. The long-term success of the portfolios will continue to be guided by these principles.
